Lohen De-Coke Service For N14 MINI Cooper S & JCW Models
If you own a Generation 2 MINI with an N14 engine, Cooper S 2007-2009 or MINI JCW 2007 - 2012, it’s likely your MINI R56 hatch or R55 Clubman will be suffering from a build-up of carbon around the valves and intake ports. It’s not anything you can avoid, unfortunately, due to the second generation MINI’s using direct injection for improved performance and fuel economy. But if you don’t take steps to minimise the impact of this carbon build-up (coking), your MINI can suffer all manner of issues. Generation 2 MINI’s coming to Lohen will benefit from a complimentary Visual Health Check and, our many years of experience can signal where an MINI is down on power or not behaving as it should.
It’s worth considering De-coking as part of your regular MINI servicing and upkeep schedule as, due to the nature of direct injection engines, the build-up cannot be prevented.
It may be time to consider a Lohen De-Coke if you're MINI is suffering from:
• General hesitation
• Reduced airflow
• Sluggish acceleration
• Generally feeling ‘flat’ and lacking responsiveness and power
