      andrew has been telling me about this stuff too
      mine is on 66000km and I do notice the performance and economy has dropped quite a bit lately

      I'm keen to do this, it just comes in a spray can does it? just throttle body pipe off and spray it in? Andrew, do you know if this product is retailed to the public?
      Thanks

        As far as i know, you can buy it retail, mate. And yes, pull the pipe off and spray it in. That's pretty much it..

          has any one tried fitting up a mann hummel pro vent?

          save having to do this all the time.

          lot of land rover guys with turbo diesels use them to great effect.

            I did but not to Caddy. It works very well if you buy kit get some spare cartridges or at least one - I clean mine and reuse it.

            Here is the post.

            Check out Greg Roles "Let the tinkering..." threads in the diesel section, he installed ProVent200 in his Golf TDI Sport, there is a lot of good info in his threads too.

              I did the inlet flush that Andrew has been raving on about to me for a couple of months now..

              Definitely worth it if your Caddy has done over 50k. Mine's done 65 and the difference it made was impressive.

              It's smoother on trailing throttle (very light throttle), more responsive and pulls harder too. It also seems to come on boost more smoothly. I'm pretty happy with the result.

              Preen,

              which TDI engine is that?

                  I had another look under my bonnet.
                  Is your Caddy not a turbo?
