SteveGSXR600K1 Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 Hi all, Just thought I'd let you know that I wanted to see what a difference a Terraclean would do to my 1.6 Ti-VCT (125) engine. It's quite a disappointing engine to be honest and wished I got the Titanium-X with the 1.6 EcoBoost engine. There's little, if any, torque if you're in 5th and you need to drive it like a 2-stoke by knocking it down a couple of gears and booting it! Mine's only done 39K miles and I don't know how it was driven for the 27K miles before me, so I thought I'd try a Terraclean. I had a service on Thursday, and driving it to work on Friday was quite a noticeable improvement. I had the Terraclean done on Saturday, and the drive to work on Monday was a similar improvement again. It felt smoother and quieter, and more responsive during the warm-up period. It's still not going to blow my socks off, but happy with the results which are probably a mixture of the service and Terraclean. I wasn't expecting a vast improvement as this is more likely if you have a diesel. I'll see how it goes with MPG when I next fill up. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Banks86 Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 I have been wondering if this would be worth doing, I have recently got a petrol 1.6 2010 Zetec S it's only done 35000 miles. Out of Interest how much did it cost you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveGSXR600K1 Posted February 4, 2016 Author Share Posted February 4, 2016 It cost £108. It did make a difference to mine, and your's is pretty much the same, so should see an improvement. Also, it's piece of mind that it's had a good clean-out!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
