International reputable brand, probably at least as good as any other. Readily available here. Not going to make it more difficult than that.

Opie are also site sponsors thus you receive a discount if you use the code 'DEF2' in the basket.

Forte diesel treatment was the one recommended to me by two different mechanics:

Forte is a 'now and then' type product where as Millers Ecomax is a small amount each time, I've tried both, Ecomax is very good and if you buy a 5L it'll last ages, it does improve economy too, I did a spreadsheet (yawn) and got an extra 0.6 - 0.9 mpg extra on average.
Forte is good as an additive after a service maybe.
I add 200ml of 2 stroke oil every now and then to a full tank.

I fill my new fuel filter with Forte at service time and then take it on a quick blast up and down the bypass to give it a good clear out. Always makes a huge difference Thumbs Up

Forte once a year as a lot of garages use it and Millers at most fuel ups as you can hear and feel the difference. Pov.spec,ftw. 2006, 110,TD5.

Forté. The only one worth its purchase price.

Just bought 2 x 500ml Millers Oils Diesel Power Ecomax from Opie, really quick service and the price was good, and the little discount helped,hope the truck enjoys the change from 2stroke oil for a while
