carbon build up

[yarlie7]

Hello all,
Very soon I will be cleaning my inlet manifold and servicing the injectors and to get rid of any carbon related muck and grime. Can anyone recommend what product is good to use to brake down and clean the carbon deposits I will find. E.g. carbon cleaner?
Regards.

You won't get to your injectors by removing the inlet manifold. What engine do you have and what year is your car?

2005 2.0tfsi. The injectors are right behind the front frame between the throttle body and the inlet manifold. I know how to get to the injectors. I was asking what product is good for removing carbon build up and grime?
Thanks.

My mistake, i presumed it was diesel, hence why you wouldn't get to injectors by removing the inlet manifold. With regards to removing carbon, i wouldn't really like to say
