For the first time my Honda dealership suggested this service when I went for scheduled maintenance. In all my years and many cars, no one ever mentioned this before. Is this something that might have been in past "normal" service lists and I just did not know it, and now they are separating it because it costs a lot? Or is it not really necesaary and they want to make some money? They are pricing this at $150.

They're just trying to get in your pocket.
If your car is running good, no need for this service.

Most fuels have cleaners in them to prevent injectors from clogging up.
