Hi I personally would be more interested in having the diagnostics and sorting out whatever comes up from that before finding new and diverse ways of making a good car in to a wreck.

I've heard horror stories too from carbon cleaning. In my experience keeping on top of maintenance is what keeps older Audi's going. It's not cheap but keeps mine reliable.
