In my case which the engine quite new, i get the best effect just before the half of 2nd full tank of refueled caltex. It is smoother and less vibration.

IMO, Caltex also offer good additives for it petrol (not sure with the ron 95). I used to fill Caltex if i got chance when i was petrol user for 10 years. It was always feel smoother. But now the rival V-power 97 arise!!.... So when V-power Euro 2M?..

Keep refuel it bro and you don't really need extra additives saperately. FYI, I never been so serious about choosing fuel untill i am diesel motorist recently. The effect is more noticable than petrol. However, since the number of Caltex station is very limited, I always plan and calculate my timing for next refuel.

Agree with you bro, on the Caltex station limitation. After trying the 1st tank with Caltex, i agree that it's quieter & smoother too. For the mileage, it's the same to me with Petronas.

As for the station, I found 3 station near my working place, Paramout Garden, next to 3 2 Square & in Kelana Jaya, but only got 1 pump. Sometimes have to rebut with small lorries. Tapi tak pe lah, asal diesel nya bagus Pak....

Cheers.

and agreed with u, even at 1st pump, I can feel the diff...and what I hate about Caltex, the diesel pump always dekat luar, not inside...Most of diesel pump I went, is outside... maybe they should think about others who have luxury diesel truck..haha
Subang Jaya got 2, Shah Alam also got 2,just for information...
