    Redex - any good?

    I've got an OM606 W210 which seems to be running pretty well, but judging by the state of the fuel filler (it was like a dirty old chip pan 'til I cleaned it) the car's spent some time running on veggie oil mixed with diesel. Other than the filters / in tank strainer (which I'd expect to need...

    Redex and DPF engines

    I'm new to dpf engines, I've always run redex in my cars. Is it still ok to run it on engines with dpfs? As the user manual recommends that you don't use fuel additives. Thanks

    Redex Petrol or Petrol Injection Cleaner?

    Hi, My 2000 Mercedes A140 petrol seems to have started to be a bit nasty on the petrol side (ie. it's eating more than usual), so I thought I'd give it a single treatment of redex. Can anyone tell me which one I need, the Redex Petrol Cleaner or Petrol Injection cleaner? Thanks.

    Redex vs V-Power ??

    R2D2's thread has got me thinking about cutting the cost of my fuel. I've always used v-power diesel since I got my car, on the few occasions I've used normal fuel I've noticed increased smoke but no other side effect. So my question is this...is putting in a fuel additive like Redex (open...

    Redex

    I'd be interested to hear views on fuel system treatments. Should I use any even if i dont know what the previous owner was using? Does anyone notice much difference with economy of performance?

    Redex Fuel Additive

    Hi, just a quick question. I have a W124 300TD with nearly 200K on the clock. Is the Redex Diesel Stuff any good, does anyone use it or recommend using it (whether in diesel or petrol). Any negative opinons are also welcome.

    Anybody use REDEX system cleaner? ('green' vs. 'red' label REDEX)

    Daft question coming up - you've been warned :p I bought some REDEX. Now, when buying, I had a choice of 2. The red label is designe for petrol cars and the green label for cars with injectors.....I bought the green? Is that right? Does a 420SE have injectors? :o :D

    Redex - yes or no ?

    Is there any real benefit in throwing a bottle of redex into the tank every so often on my petrol cars? Or is it just a waste of time & money? Thanks!
