Fuel additives improve combustion efficiency, reduce carbon deposits, and enhance catalyst performance. Detergent additives prevent injector fouling, octane boosters reduce knock, and combustion improvers can reduce emissions by 5-15%. Use manufacturer-approved additives to avoid warranty issues. Quality additives cost £5-20 per treatment but provide measurable emission and performance benefits.

Fuel additives for reducing exhaust emissions
Exhaust emissions fluid / additive
Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) is a 32.5% urea solution that reduces NOx by 90-95% in SCR systems. DEF consumption averages 2-3% of fuel usage, costing £0.50-1.00 per liter. Quality DEF prevents catalyst damage and system failures. Fuel additives can improve combustion efficiency and reduce particulate formation by 15-25%.
