While MB says not to, I have always used Power Service Diesel Clean Cetane Boost in all my diesels. I put 8 ounces in every forth or fifth fill-up. I always see a slight bump in mpg with PS (the grey bottle). The white bottle is for really extreme cold conditions and has additional anti-gel compounds.

Interesting, often thought about picking up a bottle but bit nervous about pulling the trigger with the warranties. I did notice ImInPA that your MPGs did seem to beat mine when you reported on your 212...

I started using AMSOIL Diesel Injector Clean additive since August.

I added in 4 oz every fill up. Each 16 oz bottle costs around $8.00 and lasts 4 fill ups.
