Has anyone had any positive or advers experience with Hiclones? I am looking at ways to save fuel costs for my X-Trail. I welcome any info that isfrom real users not not commercial or selling agents. Thanks in advance.

I had two hiclones fitted to my GU 2.8L Patrol and now have one in the 3Ltr Navara, only because I took them out of the Patrol and one happened to fit the 3Ltr Navara. In my opinion they make very little differance to performance or fuel consumption and for what they cost they are not worth the money.

Yep, and I've got the eyes out of about 1,000 needles to sell too (very cheap) as well as the holes from 400 fresh doughnuts (also very cheap). ;-))

Hmm i don't have one but from what i can gather they work really well in some cars.ie up to 20% better economy. I know someone who swears by them. You get a money back guarantee so what have u got to lose?

Our X Trail returns between 8 and 10lt 100km most days.
What is wrong with yours?
Hiclones are unproven

Thanks,
9.96 L / 100km is the best I have got yet. Is yours standard or have you got mods?
