Gonna have a go at this as although mine just passed its MOT, the Readings for hydro carbons were 183ppm which is near the limit of 200. For the sake of £85 , I've found a local guy in Hampshire to give this a go.

CO was low at .0.18%
Hydro Carbons PPM 193.  Limit 200.  :scared:

Car mileage 67k.

Be interested to hear how you get on?

Where about is this dealer as I wouldn't mind giving it a go.

183 ppm seems high, Could your map be the cause? Extra fuel to keep EGT's down?

My GTI (Stage 1) went through on the last test with an HC reading of 1 ppm.

I'm not sure about this cleaning but I guess you can post the results :happy2:.



I've sent the guy an email , so wait to hear. How can the remap cause low CO but high HC?..

Wouldn't both me high if the map was at fault? I'm confused, but I know last year my HC on last years mot was the same.
My mpg isn't too great so just me thinking whether I need to act.. Confused  :confused:

Idle speed, and performance are no issue so maybe it could be the remap?.I could call Superchips and ask whether a remap could cause higher HC over stock..unless another Tuner on here might know??

Was your CO 0.18% against the limit of 0.20%? My CO was 0% on that same test.

Maybe its ignition timing, could have a look at your plugs? A tuner will help.

Yes..

I have a Full turbo back system installed, and only error I've had in the past on VCDS is Bank1 system too lean on occasion, but not every week, maybe once a month appearing.

I know another Ed30 went on the same Emmisions test the day before, remapped by a different tuner and was well within tolerance , so unsure what to do?

Sports cat?  Usually needs a blast round the block to get the cat nice and warm before the MOT.

She normally only does short trips, but I'm going to DMR Friday so that's 140 mile Italian tune coming up  :signLOL:

Thanks for your help  :happy2:

Good old Italian Tune up :signLOL:

I always give my car a blast before an MOT, probably don't need to with the journeys I do.

Found out although my remap was switched on, I'm running a 200 cell full turbo back Milltek which might be something to do with it.
Also found out the Ed30 I was comparing to, had their emissions taken at idle speed and not between 2500-3500rpm  :grin:

I will now sleep soundly, and thanks Hurdy's for your words of wisdom  :happy2:

Mine is 200 cell too Steve. :smiley:

Carbon build up issues are no more with the aid of a very simple service with hydrogen technology.
I had mine done, it took 30 mins and she ran like a dream.
Cost £70.00 to remove the carbon build up and left my car with a great increase in performance, power and fuel efficiency.
It ran quieter and smoother.
It cleans the carbon from the air intake right through to the exhaust including turbo's, valves, combustion chamber, inlet manifold etc,DPF(if not too far gone), EGR and CATs...
Very effective, cheap and non invasive service.

Come on guys... theres people out there who are having carbon build up issues and having to way out cash and endure hassle and headache and they have no reason to.
Would you not let people know there is infact something they can do about it that isnt costly or invasive with their pride and joy?

What is the product?

How does it work?

Results?

Etc. . .

Carbon buildup on the TFSI is becoming a common problem so any cheap fix would be welcome, providing it's not snake oil  :happy2:

The product is based on hydrogen technology, it is a stand alone unit that produces pure hydrogen which is simply fed into the air intake of any combustion engine.
The results after 30 mins are reduced emissions, increased performance, increased power and increased fuel efficiency due to the carbon being removed and the engine now being able to breath as it should.
If DPF is too far gone this will need replacing but this service will certainly help clean it and prevent build up.
Everything else just gets cleaned.
It works by giving the fuel a more complete burn in the combustion chamber and else where the hydrogen molecules are positive and negatively charged and so draw the carbon to it like a magnet, much like cars are painted nowadays.
I have many graphs showing the before and after emissions readings of many different vehicles that all show the same thing, a measurable reduction in emissions we also have many customer testimonials all confirming the results as well as the official MOD report etc.
What more do you need lol.
