Anybody in Orlando to Clean Intake Valves/Walnut Blast

Would Fields BMW do this cleaning under warranty? If not does anyone in Orlando know how to do this correctly?

It won't be covered under warranty. I can do it but you'd have to drive to Jacksonville.

I'll make the drive down on a weekend if someone has a garage to work out of. I can bring everything needed.

This is good to know for the future! About how many miles did you have on the engine when you needed it done?

If there are at least 4-6 people that want to get this done and someone has a driveway or garage we could work out of, I'd be willing to come down. Maybe a day in Tampa and another in Orlando. I can bring everything needed. Just need power and some real estate. I may be able to borrow a generator as well if needed.
I've already done 6-7 in Jax.

You can meet half way in Gainesville at my place. I have a garage and tools we can use. I want to clean my intake as well and can't find anyone in town to do it!

I will go to Jax or Orlando to get this done if i need to! Whats the price for the service e90TiAg335i?

I don't know what you mean by "correctly" but we use the BMW attachment and blast them spotless, they really look like they were never used.

We can also send a camera into your intake to show you the current condition.
