Millers Diesel Power Sport 4

Roley140 · 11-23-2007, 11:33 AM

Has anone tried this in their diesel A4 ?
I have been using it for about 6 weeks, and have found that on the positive side, it smooths out the engine when cold, and does give noticeably better 'boost'. However on the downside, it makes the engine very smokey on acceleration and knocks about 3 mpg off my fuel consumption on motorway runs. Now I have gone back to 'raw' diesel, my MPG has now noticeably improved, even though it is quite a bit colder.

Hi
I've been trying this stuff and found much the same things Smokey,poorer fuel consumption but the engine does seem smoother but I've not noticed any performance improvements. We have probably been conned again. 5th Gear did a test on these kind of things but on a petrol engine with similar results to what we are finding, in their case the additives actualy REDUCED the BHP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Cheers
