Injector cleaner

[Anarchy05]

Are those injector cleaner additives you get actually worth it?
Does it harm youre engine?

My dads car`s in for a service and whilst I borrowed him mine,he went an put some of that shit in!Not that a mind getting a free tank of petrol,but for what reason would he go throw that shit in if theres nothing wrong?lol

Todays fuels have so much cleaning additives, that those cleaners don't mean a lot. BTW, the Wynns blue stuff is pretty much just spirits. It should not harm your engine.

It should not do any harm.. I would say every 15000km I would get some & put it in half a tank & go take a nice long drive on the hiway

There is a big difference in this regard between petrol and diesel. AFAIK, your injectors are also of ancient design and live longer than the newer ones... I have a 530d that has done 272kkm with no injector cleaner or additives ever, and injectors are still working 100%.
