Any suggestions? lol
They probably won't do it unless your car is being rough, or it throws some sort of fault code. You could go and complain that you've had reduced power recently, you feel it being rough, your mileage has gotten worse since last year, and you think there's a carbon buildup problem, but there's no guarantee that'll work. You usually need concrete evidence that you can reproduce in front of a tech, and even then sometimes they'll try and blame the problem on something else. But either way, this isn't a standard maintenance procedure. It might be warranty related because it can kill the life of your engine, but there's no guarantee they'll even do it for free...
