Default Both, sort of...
Every so slight roughness in the idle... the car has 37k on the new injectors and I suspect they could use a good cleaning. Plus the 12v V6 is known to have issues with carbon...

My A6 seems to love Chevron Gas!

Dealer used this stuff on my '98 A6 2.8Q - Didn't do squat for my carbon build-up problem.

Default Exactly: different concentrations.
Using the Chevron w/ Techron's good. A shot of more concentrated Techron from the bottle every 5-10k miles isn't a bad idea.

Default no guarantee it'll solve everything but its strong enough to have stopped some cars...
see my post below: it'll knock loose some crud that'll stop the car dead in some cases...

Default Wasn't there an article in EC a few years ago, about an older MB that
had a special process done to it that cleaned the injectors really well ? Not sure what it did for the valves.

Default Not sure about that one, but...
My mechanic was telling me about some vacuum system/process, he could do, that would solve the problem also... maybe the same treatment.
