I used Redex in my wife's BMW 320d and it cured a slightly rough idle

I added a full bottle added to 1/4 tank after a conversation a few years back with someone who worked for the manufacturer who basically said they advised adding one bottle to a full tank to cover themselves and at that dilution it was unlikely to be very effective....

Also used it in the RR, although no specific issues to address

On personal experience, it does help clean the injectors

I know i harp on about it but using BioD always cleans systems out for me and is much cheaper than redex per ml Smile

I know its not an option for everyone but if people ever spot somewhere selling it, sticking a good wedge in wont go amis, especially if your driving an older vehicle with miles on it the sludge is already going to be sitting in the tank and lines..

Good way to reduce your carbon footprint as well inline with LR's enviromental responsibility BS Very Happy FFRR MY06 facelift With TDV8 Alloys Zeros/ATR's

What about redex?? Are they also stating you should stop goin to petrol stations as iirc 5-10% of fuel has to be renewable Wink FFRR MY06 facelift With TDV8 Alloys Zeros/ATR's

I use it whenever I run my car under 1/4 of a tank as a precaution. Never had any issues but also no noticeable mpg gain (probably due to tonking it around with the placebo performance effect).
