At the stealership a carbon clean will most likely consist of upper cylinder head cleaner sprayed into the intake manifold, letting it sit, starting the car and revving at 2500 RPM and spraying more into the intake manifold at short intervals. This should hopefully clean the small butterfly valves and the intake valves within the ports.

Upper cylinder head cleaner can also be sprayed before the throttle body to clean the throttle body itself.

I wouldn't worry too much about the MAF sensor as it sits behind the air filter and infront of any blow by oil. I took a look into myself the other day there is very minimal dirt/grim on it and mines a 2007, but is saying so, it doesn't hurt to give it a clean.

yes, a cleaner would help to prevent the issue.

Yes it does affect Australian is250s

Injector clean won't do much if you're already feeling the affects of carbon build up aka drop in revs, misfire etc.

Best to use a intake valve cleaner as tony mentioned.

I've had the issue with my is250, i ended up taking off the intake manifold used liqui moly intake valve cleaner, brushed off most of the gunk thats building on the valves and vacuumed it out

To minimize further build up i've installed an oil catch can to catch and blow by oil...lol

Wish we had the recall that they have in the states =(

Hi,

I'm looking to buy some is250 coilovers or if anyone got some 2" dropped springs i wouldn't mind either, more looking for coilovers though. If anyone knows anyone that is selling some please let me know.

Any help much appreciated.

Brisbane.

ahhhh whenever i hear of swift springs i actually think its springs from a suzuki swift LOL

imma check em out and see what they can do lol

are they rubbing when u driving over bumps or turning?

Could look into changing ur damper rates or stiffen up ur springs a bit.

wow looks nice.

Heard good stuff about bc coilovers. I was lookin to get some springs aswell and King Springs can make "custom" springs, so u can go lower/stiffer. Not too sure on how they'll go about the custom springs.... hope they don't just cut the normal ones and call it custom LOL......but yeah its another idea.

Holy Crap thats exy.

Should try to change the fuel filter urself and let them change the oil n oil filter for log book stuff.

wow 240 for labour lol...rather get some madcore springs

for the amount of money, id rather get it wrapped.
