Want to know your opinion and your experience on both carbon build up on intake valves and what you did about it. Any 50k or more miles long time owner here that can explain if you have felt the lost of power from carbon build up? I been researching and now I am worried. I did not know my new 1LE was direct port injection only and not port and direct like many manufactures are doing today. I saw a guy on facebook group with carbon build up only at 19k miles. Yes I know about the oil catch can but this only helps a bit. Are you guys worried about longevity? Thank you.
