UPDATE!
Well ladies it's been two months since my car was Terracleaned and i can now announce that my mpg has increased from 21-22mpg to (Ta ta da da ta da daaaaa!!!!!) 24-25mpg! and my fuel tank range has also increased from 310 miles to 355 miles per tank.
I have had NO running issues at all!
That's all i'm gonna say on the subject as i know it's a topic of hot debate. As they say, proof is in the pudding!

Thanx charmie I`m not but he is lol http://www.vpcuk.org/forums/showthread.php?44071-Hi
That was the reason but coul`ve paid more attention tho.Some guys on vwaudi forum done their diesels and did notice an improvement on mpg didn`t mention any power gains as probably driving like carrying a tonn of eggs.

Had 2nd Terraclean done today. 1 yr later.
Results were as spectacular as the first. HC ppm were down to 3 on live readings.
Car idles smoother, pulls harder and faster, throttle is more responsive yet not as agitated, Engine sounds sweeter. More mpg to follow.

Found them on bookface, asked for a quote as they are mobile! I hope it makes a difference to mine!
Very interested in this. Wonder if there is a stockist near me. Google!

There's a place in Wigan....only 45 minutes away. I'm thinking about giving the D5 a go.

That's close enough with a nice motorway journey on the way back. Think I will be giving it a go once its 100%.
I've read good results for petrol & Diesel engines. I had good results off that 10k boost kit you used to be able to buy in 2 cans. It made a noticeable difference but terra clean is far more advanced.

I had my D5 done a few months back. Not made much difference to MPG (perhaps a small improvement) but the engine idles and runs much smoother and quiter and is definitely more punchy and responsive!!
My car is ALWAYS run on V-Power Diesel which has a lot of cleaners in it so that may contribute to the lack of MPG gain. Others may get a noticeable gain. I'll certainly be making it an annual treatment though. Keep meaning to get the RS Roadster booked in!
