Why Engine Cleaning Matters

Your engine is the heart of your vehicle, and over time, it accumulates dirt, grease, and grime from daily driving. An unclean engine can lead to hidden leaks, overheating, and unnecessary wear and tear. Regular engine detailing offers several benefits, including:

Improved Performance – A clean engine runs cooler and more efficiently.

Easier Maintenance – Mechanics can quickly spot leaks or worn parts.

Prevention of Corrosion – Built-up oil and grime can lead to premature rust.

Enhanced Vehicle Value – A well-maintained engine increases resale value.

Common Myths About Engine Cleaning

🚫 “Water will ruin my engine!” – Not true! When done professionally, engine cleaning is completely safe. We use proper techniques to protect sensitive parts.

🚫 “Engine cleaning isn’t necessary.” – Regular cleaning prevents buildup that can lead to overheating, corrosion, and mechanical failures.

🚫 “My car is new, so I don’t need this.” – Even new cars accumulate dirt and debris, especially in harsh weather or off-road conditions. Keeping your engine clean from the start helps maintain its longevity.

Our Engine Cleaning Process

1. Inspect engine for any sensitive parts and cover with a plastic bag to eliminate water damage. (alternator, air filter etc…)

2. Spray degreaser and agitate with a brush. Rinse and repeat until all oil and grime have been removed.

3. Dry the engine bay using blower/towels and remove the bags protecting the sensitive parts.

4. Final touch up and dress all the plastics for that new like finish.
