Merc lists two approved fuel additives/cleaners:

P/N A 000 989 25 4512 which is BASF Keropur and Chevron Techron.

Different additives but similar result.

All top tier gasolines/petrol have the same additives included in their formulations.

Just start using super plus unleaded, that does the trick on mine.

Basically I've got to pick the car up from 75 miles away and wanted to give it a "kick" on the journey back so was thinking of reddex or killers in conjunction with super as it will be mot time as soon as I get back

I've always been led to believe that forte's injector cleaner isn't a bad product...

It looks like they carry STP, Wynns, and Redex...all will do the same thing without harm.

Usually you add when your tank is about a quarter full...

Using quality petrol achieves the same effect..

If you're looking to use these products regularly, then it's very much cheaper to buy in 5 litre tin. At that price it only adds 1-2p per litre to the overall fuel costs.
