Only 30k miles on my car. Stop and go traffic every day. Noticeably smoother on acceleration now, love it. |

Looks like a job well done! I've done dozens of walnut blastings here locally. I would recommend this being done every 30-40k. It's crazy how much smoother the car runs, even sounds more throaty. Enjoy!

My local BMW dealer does it for $350 too. They have a dedicated walnut blasting technician who does it all day, all year round. Smart business move, I have to say, as they make a lot of upselling as a result of the cheap blasting pulling in lots of DIY folks. It seems there's something about an officially trained BMW technician looking over your car once in a while.

I am going to get a walnut blasting rig in a few weeks so I can do my own. No reason to pay more at the BMW dealership when I can do just as good or better job at my house.
