Another way to prevent carbon buildup is to avoid short trips and regularly take your BMW 3 Series for longer drives. This will allow the engine to properly warm up and burn off any accumulated carbon.

Using fuel additives or cleaners specifically designed for cleaning carbon buildup can also help. Just make sure to choose a product that is compatible with BMW engines.
