Bob, by "self cleaning" do you mean what is (or used to be) called "continuous cleaning," a coated interior that allegedly cleans itself during normal use? My recollection is that Consumer Report weighed in very negatively on those as just about useless.
What I think is usually meant by a "self-cleaning oven" works by securing the front door with an interlock device and cleaning at an extreme high temperature. This should work just fine irrespective of coating, but I gather that's not what you're talking about.
If I'm interpreting correctly here, I think it's elbow-grease time for Bob.
