Does anybody use any petrol additives for maintenance, performance or economy?

If so, what are the best ones you have tried?

Yep i use forte products, recently used their advanced oil motor flush and their advanced gas treatment.

And i found that it worked brilliantly car felt brand new to drive, well worth to get it done on the service.

unless your engine is in need of it then no need, modern engines and petrols do it all for you.

Totally agree!

So long as you change the oil and filter regularly along with other filters,(once a year), Modern engine Tolerances are soooo much better than the 'Old School' engines, so no need for RedEx....

How often do you guys feel the oil filter? I only do about 12k miles a year.
