Is it true that pushing your vehicle to its limits, on the road can help remove dirt and debris from the engine resulting in performance and durability? Lets explore the science behind this belief and separate fact from fiction.
Contrary to belief driving at speeds does not actually clean the engine. In fact aggressive driving behaviors like speeding and sudden accelerations can have impacts on both the engine and overall vehicle performance. These actions can lead to increased wear and tear on engine components potentially resulting in maintenance and repair costs over time. To keep your engine clean and running smoothly it’s best to stick with maintenance routines such, as oil changes, filter replacements and fuel system cleanings.
