Hotshots EDT every fill-up. I will dose Hotshots diesel extreme about every 6 months. This engine uses an updated BOSCH CP4 HIGH PRESSURE fuel pump. Early pumps (2011 to the date that a problem was recognized) would allow the piston/roller to turn sideways on the eccentric and fill the entire fuel system from shards of metal contaminants requiring complete replacement of everything.
Who uses a fuel additive?

I've been using Archoil for the last 38,000 miles and I think it works great and with low number of regens. I had some Opti-Lube XPD sitting in the garage and when I ran out of Archoil, used that. I noticed an immediate increase in regens; from 500 to less than 300 miles. Just switched back today to Archoil so we'll see what happens since I was already at 80% soot. My regen results were using the same R99 Diesel 2 I've mostly used since new
