Hi all, we have 75,000KM on our beloved 2015 Mazda 6. it is ALREADY beggining to show signs of intake port buildup!!! the car makes this strange intake grumbling sound at low rpm. Idle, and revving (particularly at high rpm) is not as smooth as before. fuel economy has dropped slightly.
I am concerned that there is already so much buildup at such a low mileage. is my only choice really to take off the intake manifold and clean the ports? is there some sort of chemical I can put on the ports to slow buildup?
It's my dads car (he drives it extremely conservatively in a straight line which 100% contributed to such quick buildup) so I took it out for a thorough drive the other day (few redlines) and immediately i felt the engine begin to run smoother, but unless you rip the engine regularly, there is not much you can do about the buildup.
so my question is, do intake cleaners work? how else can I slow the buildup?
thanks all.
