Cost Effective Maintenance

Just thought I would share my thoughts on some products I’ve been using from Cost Effective Maintenance.

I have been looking for ideas to attempt to improve the fuel economy on my Patrol. I came across this company by chance and gave their products designed for diesel engines a try.

Particularly I have tried the CRD Fuel Enhancer, FTC Decarboniser, Flushing Oil Concentrate and the AW10 Antiwear. All products were used on a 2008 Nissan Patrol GU CRD Auto.

All these products have a individual purpose, which is explained on their website and I have to write I am surprised with the results. I have observed approximately 1-2 L/per 100km drop in fuel consumption, smoother transitions in the auto gearbox and a small increase in power. One of the biggest differences I have noticed is the elimination of smoke from the car. I never had an issue with smoke, however the combination of these products have almost eliminated any trace of smoke, even under load.

I also added some of the AW10 Antiwear into the auto transmission and almost instantly noticed that the Patrol was transitioning gears smoother than ever before.

I am not at all affiliated with Cost Effective Maintenance, just a satisfied customer who can recommend their products for those looking to clean out their engine’s and improve fuel consumption.

Cheers,

Nathan.
