The I6s have a self diagnostic/self tuning program built in which constantly checks and corrects timing, advance etc, so there is really nothing to "tune" as such. Every service these days is more like a glorified oil change.
Oh I see so basically when my mechanic puts my car on the computer all that's doing is checking codes? That's ok then - I would hate to have to change mechanics. He's always looked after me well. Thanks for that information
