Walnut Shell Blasting in Castro Valley, CA Valve carbon buildup can be a serious issue with GDI engines. At Adams Autoworx, we offer quality automotive services to make sure that your car’s engine is performing at its best. One of the services we offer is known as Walnut Shell Blasting. GDI engines can suffer from valve carbon buildup. Without regular cleaning, the buildup can accumulate to the point where it can reduce engine responsiveness, drivability, and even lead to a check-engine light. While it might sound strange, using finely-ground walnut shells is actually a fairly standard way of cleaning out this buildup in engines. The walnut shells act as an abrasive and they clean out the carbon buildup from the engine. If it is time for your GDI car to have its engine cleaned, or if you need another engine service, bring it in to Adams Autoworx. We offer a 36-month/36,000-mile warranty on our services. To make an appointment, give us a call or visit our website.

FAQs

Why is summer maintenance crucial for my Nissan?

Summer is characterized by hot temperatures and this may exert more pressure on your car. Heat impacts different components of your Nissan, including the engine, wheels, and other parts. Regular servicing of your Nissan means that you will have a car that is safe to drive, has minimal breakdowns, and will not cost you a lot of money to fix.

How do I Get My Tires Ready for Summer?

Tires play an important role in performance and safety during summer. Make sure you monitor the pressure of your tires as often as you can because, during summer, the extreme heat may increase the pressure inside a tire, making your tires overinflated. When your Nissan tires are inflated to the right pressure they consume less fuel and there is a lesser chance of a blowout occurring.

How Can I Make My Nissan Interior Less Hot?

Maintaining low temperatures inside your car during summer is very important for comfort. Switch on your air conditioner and ensure the air coming out of it is cold. If it is not as cool as it is supposed to be, then you need to recharge the refrigerant or get the system examined for any leakage. The cabin air filter should be replaced if it is dirty. This is because a clean filter enhances the circulation of air as well as the efficiency of your air conditioning system. Tint your windshield with sun shades so as to reduce heat build-up when you park your car. This also shields your dashboard and seats from the scorching sun and potential damage.
