Re Jeef Beefs Post-I've got an '08 with over 100,000k on it.
Had carbon build up at 45,000k's and again at 95,000k's.
Do a reasonable amount of stop start driving but also do at least 3-4 freeway trips around an hour (or more) a fortnight. Cost about $550-600 from memory at the dealers to get done.
Had a noticeable drop in power and a slight hesitation under acceleration which caused me to put the car into the dealers where it was diagnosed and fixed and I was shown before and after pics. Anyone who thinks they dont have too worry about this once they get over 40,000k's is in for a surprise.
