Dont want to steal anyones thunder but thought I would inform members that I have had Terraclean done on a Volvo 850 T5 as well as a T5R.
T5R was then taken to Germany and was getting 26mpg driving through towns avoiding all motorways to get a results from fuel economy.
I had the terraclean done at Grease junkies in Bracknell which just for reference is the garage owned by Ed China from the T.V show Wheeler Dealers and the studio is next door to the garage. Terraclean cost £80 each car and was quick and easy and emissions were tested before during and after system was run. Results were amazing.
After system was run emissions kept dropping all the time going from an instant M.O.T FAILURE to a PASS with flying colours.
If that's not worth £80 then I dont know what is.

Well I had the day off so I thought it only polite to go for a run in the car and drop in and see MRP.....while there we fitted a quick shift kit, strut brace and had a general clean around the engine bay (inc battery lol) ready for Sunday.
Must say the quick shift really makes a difference, reducing the 'throw' of the gear lever by nearly half, the strut brace stiffens the car up nicely throwing the car into corners, overall a good afternoons work.
Thanks again to Martin, without whom my car would not be half as good as it is.....thanks mate
Only bad point to note is on the way home the car's odometer passed 60,000 miles, is there much mileage left in the old girl
Right on with the pics.....
Quick shift plate fitted.....
.....and the end result, after fitting the strut brace and having a 'clean up'.....what you recon ?
