I looked into it. I don't like the idea of spending that much on what is essentially a single-use tool, so I think you're better off just paying a shop to do it.
well if you buy your own you'll be able to do it 3x based on what the dealer charges no? It's something i'm considering to try on my own as i'm sure i'll be replacing the intake soon as the runners crap out. itching to try doing it on my owndealer wanted $800 for it. dont feel like buying a tool that ill use maybe once ever either.

I don't know.... 2 TSi's at the house plus a couple buddies of mine... might pay off in the long run knowing stealership charges mucho for the work... hmmm long term investment pays off
I just think it's not worth buying the media blasting equipment if I'm only going to use it once.
those types of tune ups dont work for carbon lol. But yeahI would say it's worth getting. I do italian tune ups to burn off carbon, but this tool is on my wishlist. It works on all direct-injection cars, you would probably end up using it a few times unless you just lease.
