Walnut Blasting?

Getting my Valve Stem Seals replaced under warranty. Was curious if anyone else has inquired to get walnut blasting done on top of this since the engine will already be out and apart to my understanding.

I'm getting my valve stems replaced as well. The vehicle is at the dealership as we speak. Are you talking about having the dealer do the walnut blasting?

What your mileage? Noticing any problems currently? You are certainly could have it done but I can’t imagine what he dealer would charge for that.

That is correct. My indy shop I normally use has been encouraging me to do it. Car is sitting at 85k.

Not really any problems other then some hesitations when at a stop light.

I asked them to let me know what it would cost to get done.
