Default Fuel Injection Service

Anyone think that Fuel Injection Service is a necessary thing? My dealer is offering a $99 special on this, but it's not listed as a regular interval maintenance on the A4 service manual.

Any thoughts on this?

Default If it is a BG clean or Motorvac system clean .. .I think it is VERY worth it. Both of those will

the fuel rail, injectors, valaves, piston crown and the cat. I've had Motorvac done twice and after each I was amazed at how the smooth the car ran.

Default I use Chevron Pro-Gard Fuel Injection Cleaner....

Drop a bottle in the tank before fuel up and you are done. Chevron makes a few other products for this also. Here is a link...<ul><li><a href="http://www.chevron.com/products/prodserv/fuels/additives/pro_gard.shtml">linky</a></li></ul>

Default Go with the Dealer Injector cleaning service....It will be more effective ...but

if you are looking for just an additive, than Techron is the way to go...
