Thanks. Are there any downsides to doing this - are there nay potential problems that can be caused by doing it. You know, like the debate about changing gearbox oil or leaving well alone, or is it simply a case of when its clean its clean. A touch nervous as I have 180k miles of relatively problem free driving and a great believer in preventative maintenance counterbalanced by a pragmatic if it aint broke dont fix it approach.....

Anyone?
I cleaned mine a while back, made quite a bit of difference in performance & seemed smoother.
After a while the car went back to being a bit rough, got it changed for a new one plus new vac pipes as the old ones were really soft & starting to break up, loads better now
As for gearbox oil change - had that done too as I had an oil leak from the gearbox wiring loom plug, again the gearbox is loads better plus the dreaded 1st gear lurch has gone
