Diesel engine oil treatment for BMW 123d
Right through from my car racing days I have used oil additives. I started with molybdenum disulphide (Molybond) which I ran in all petrol engines, and have some good tales about how Molybond saved engines. One was a diesel bus where they forgot to add engine oil after rebuilding the engine, but did smear the bearings with Molybond. They discovered this 200 kms later, and the engine was running fine if somewhat hotter and more noisy than usual.
More recently I have run my family's cars using Nulon Oil Treatment after each oil change. It is an outstanding product, and does not affect new car warranties ... not that I have tested this first hand. My question is whether anyone is running their 1-series diesel with Nulon Diesel Treatment, and if they have any comments? That is, is there any benefit if I am using the BMW approved Castrol SLX Professional OE 5W-30, BMW P/N 07 51 0 037 195?
