    My only concern with cleaning in place is where does the stuff go that you use to clean and deposits removed? Unfortunate answer is to the oxygen sensors and cat. A couple of expensive items, but it is easier than removal I guess.

    I also thought the same thing and asked them, they said it goes out with exhaust .they done this way because easier for them.but they done good cleaning with egr valve egr pipe and manifold.now i'm concerning about the HV battery how it went bad suddenly at 135000km.and why it happened after changing 12v battery.

    no, they work the same. there's a surface charge on the battery when you shut down, what the voltage after everything has been off for several hours?
