2002 1.9dci - redex fuel additive - legohead
i have a renault megane 2002 diesel 1.9dci i recently added redex diesel fuel additive to a full tank of diesel two days later my service light came on with the message check injectors , is that a coincidence or is it down to the additive and why did the message come up , i took it to the garage who reset the computer and told me to come back if the message comes on again i didnt tell them i put redex in just in case it invalidated the warranty

What warranty have you got an a 2002 car? Redex, and Millers, may not do any good but I haven't heard of them doing any harm either, until now! I think it may be a coincidence.
