Default Intake/exhaust cleaning question

So i dropped off my car at the dealer this morning to get my ABS malfunction figured out. They try to seel me the whole intake/fuel injectors/ exhaust cleaning thing for $180.

I'm not doubting that this is a good thing... but is this something that you guys think is worth having the Dealer do? i do run the odd can of seafoam (thanks to most of you guys on here that swear by it, so far, great product!) car seems to run fine, the odd very tiny vibration at idle (you almost have to look for it) which seems normal to me..rmp gauge doesnt really fluctuate...

Any how (me rambling on again) should have them do it?

I wouldn't have them do it if the car is running fine in your opinion. This is what dealerships do. They try to squeeze out as much money as they can out of their customers.

Don't have them do it unless your car is running like crap.

I concur with Zipper. Sounds like they are looking for an easy sale....
