I have used Ceratec. Hard to say if its quiets the motor or not. Most of what I hear are the injectors ticking, not the motor.
Ive read good things about it, and it seems to test well so i added 600ml to my last oil change.
Like any other additive, there is a chance its money spent to do nothing and ill never know, but its fairly inexpensive to test for yourself. My local race shop uses it for any of their motors they build or rebuild.

Yeah, you're right. I've never used additives because I'm usually concerned about damage to the engine (never needed additives) but this one has pretty good reviews and many with the m156 here swear by it
