Our world class Hydrogen generating machine pulses Hydrogen and Oxygen into the engine which upon contact with dry hardened carbon will burn it back into it's hydrocarbon state (a gas) so that it can exit safely through the exhaust system. Includes FREE dealer level diagnostics scan.Recommended for: Those who use our Carbon Cleaning Services annually or every 10,000 to 12,000 miles.
Price: £119.99

As per our Stage-1 service but with our unique Catalytic Convertor / Injector Cleaning Chemical. As Hydrogen is introduced into the engine through the air intake the chemical is also administered through the fuel system to work in conjunction with the Hydrogen. This additional chemical doubles up as an injector cleaner making for better atomisation of fuel and therefore closer to complete combustion is achieved which in turn means less carbon build-up! Includes FREE dealer level diagnostics scan.Recommended for those serious about their prevention cleaning and vehicles with faulty Catalytic Convertors.
PLEASE NOTE: THIS SERVICE IS NOT GUARANTEED TO RESOLVE A FAULTY CATALYTIC CONVERTOR IF IT HAS PHYSCIALLY FAILED. CARBON CLEANING WILL CLEAN THE CONVERTOR BUT IT CANNOT REPAIR.

Carbon Cleaning is your best option!
The catalytic converter is a component of the exhaust system that is essential to controlling vehicle emissions.
It does so by converting toxic pollutants in the exhaust gases to less toxic pollutants and water, this is done by an oxidation and reduction method. When a catalytic converter fails it is essential it is immediately replaced.
The process of converting exhaust gas toxic pollutants is a sophisticated one. The core of the converter is a ceramic monolith with a honeycomb filter structure. There is a film of precious metal that’s on top of the monolith which at high heat intercepts and decomposes the toxins as they travel through the converter.
Manufacturers claim that a catalytic converter is designed to last the lifetime of the vehicle however it’s now common knowledge that they don’t and replacing the converter at least once during the lifetime of the vehicle is to be expected.
'The Catalytic Converter must reach temperatures,but with in-excess of 50% of journeys in the UK falling short of this 10 mile minimum journey requirement the converter doesn’t get up to
temperature often enough. So, by nature of being a filter the carbon deposits travelling through the converter will eventually build up and start to clog the converter.
First signs of such an issue will manifest with excessive fuel consumption and loss of engine performance but as this occurs over a period of time it usually goes unnoticed by most until there are bigger problems
There are numerous ways to clean or replace the Catalytic Converter with varying prices.
The costliest option is a complete replacement part. Most mechanics will recommend this – Why? Because they’ll earn a profit from the part and it’s a quicker job for them. The price of a new catalytic converter varies on average between £800 and £3,000 plus labour for fitting. NOTE: Some vehicles have two Catalytic Converters, in these instances both should be replaced at the same time making the bill for replacement much larger!
The moderately expensive alternative is to replace the Catalytic Converter with a ‘straight pipe’ effectively removing the converter system from the vehicle. Some choose to do this for performance purposes however for road vehicles this will invalidate the vehicles ability to pass MOT emissions tests so we do not recommend this option. Prices for such a conversion start from around £300 including labour.
Then there’s our service, the most cost-efficient option.

Depending on the level of service chosen our engine carbon cleaning service takes a total of 45-60 minutes.
Carbon cleaning is not as such a fix, it’s original purpose is cleaning as a preventative measure as carbon build-up is the root cause of 85% of the failure of components.
You cannot clean too much but we recommend preventative cleaning once a year, or every 10-12,000 miles – just like a regular oil change but for the air and fuel side of your engine - little and often is the key and as the saying goes… ‘An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure!
Certainly not. We are a worldwide brand with CE marked machines, operating in over 50 countries with 100’s of machines being used daily – never has there been a catalytic convertor clogged or damaged from using our engine carbon cleaning process. When the hydrogen breaks the carbon down back into it's hydrocarbon most of the particles are small enough they will simply pass through the convertor. Any that are large enough to be caught will as long as your catalytic convertor is healthy like any other particles get burnt up safely.
We would not take any risks with your vehicle, so for piece of mind UKCC Auto Techs guarantee to you that all our technicians are trained to the highest standards and are independently fully insured.
No, this process is totally safe and untraceable.
