Hi all, has anyone been using diesel additives ? If so what have you used and what would you recommend ? I have been told that the Hydra diesel cleaner and booster is good. Anyone got anything to add ?

I tried 2 stroke oil (low ash) in my old cdti vectra c, also tried Miller's diesel. I personally believe this helps keep the EGR and DPF cleaner.
We all know the egr can get really clogged and it's not a self cleaning part like the dpf. And it's not a service item in the service book.
I use the Archoil stuff in mime, seems better value than Millers. Used it in my old car as well and it ran really well with it.
The way I see it, it's the equivalent of running it on premium diesel but its cheaper.
I have used the powermaxed DPF cleaner and their fuel injector additive very few months in mine never all that sure if they are doing much but car always seems smoother and I haven't has any DPF problems. Still need to get finger out and grow a pair and try cleaning my EGR out sometime.

Graeme you can get your garage to clean the egr out and have it done once a year when it has service. That is what I would do if I get a diesel.
