Dirty injectors, carbon fouled swirl flaps or engine deposits, what can you do? Our component photographs help assess the issue: when components can be cleaned, when maintenance treatments help, and when a workshop visit is required.

Dirty diesel injectors, what can you do?
The close up shows deposits on a diesel injector. Whether and how its operation is affected cannot be judged from the photo alone.
The next step: If you experience starting problems, rough running or a warning light, check the cause first. For fuel system care, Diesel System is designed for use in the fuel tank.

Cleaning EGR and swirl flaps: which solution fits?
Swirl flaps and EGR components can show clearly visible deposits. Fitting position, condition and function are critical here.
The next step: If parts are jammed or heavily coated with deposits, a diagnosis is advisable. Adding it to the tank does not replace the necessary cleaning or repair of these parts.
The can below is intended for supporting care of the diesel fuel system. It is not an assured fix for the EGR or swirl flap issue shown.

The photo shows an injector with deposits. Visible coating alone says nothing about the spray pattern or sealing.
The next step: Have running faults inspected. For routine petrol fuel system care, add Petrol System before filling up completely, matched to fuel volume and following product instructions.

The additional component photos serve as illustrative material, not a promise that adding product to the fuel tank cleans every part shown. Internal comparison photos do not replace documented vehicle proof of performance.

04 · Before the oil change
Cleaning the engine before an oil change: when is an engine flush suitable?
The photo shows dipsticks in internal comparison. Oil colour alone is not reliable proof of engine condition or product performance.
The next step: Preparing a planned oil change: add Oil System Engine Flush according to instructions to the warm old oil, run the engine at idle for ten minutes, then change oil and filter following manufacturer specifications.

05 · After the oil change
Engine wear, what can you do?
The camshaft shows wear marks. An oil additive cannot replace worn away metal.
The next step: Have worn components inspected by a professional. For ongoing care of an undamaged engine, add High Performance Oil Additive to the fresh engine oil. Observe oil volume, product suitability and manufacturer guidelines.
Do not use with wet clutches sharing the engine oil circuit.
