I've got the exact same model as you.

DEFINITELY get chevron techron fuel system cleaner instead of going to the dealer to clean your injectors. I use techron about every 4 months or whenever mine starts acting a little sluggish. Best time to use it is right before or after an oil change. I swear that stuff feels like it adds a bunch of boosted horsepower to my system. Especially after it runs through the whole tank and cleans the whole system out. If yr using it for the first time 2 bottles work the best. Run it through one tank full then use another bottle on another fill up. Makes the car run faster smoother and like its brand new.

My car does 0-6 in around 5 secs and I think techron takes atleast a second off that time. But I have 15 inch wheels with high performance potenza's too. Plus I use a mix of 5w 20 and about 5 or 10% 5w 30 castrol edge.

But yea Techron's one of the best cleaner's out... i doubt the dealer could clean your injectors any better than techron does.
