After 6 months of using the Mannol ester version of this I can say it works on diesels.
Pros: works on diesels

Hyundai's fuel aditive/cleaner is the same stuff as Techron.
Pros: same as Techron
Vehicle:
Hyundai
Every tank since has had additive. Stanadyne usually but will run any of the major ones.
Pros: prevent fuel pump noises
Used power service for 15yrs off/on. It’s the only additive that actually made a mildly noticeable improvement in the 5.9 injector Noise and slight smoke increase.
Pros: noticeable improvement
Cons: slight smoke increase
It's B.S. Get a bottle of Chevron Techron in Advance auto or auto zone for like $10-$12 and pour it in your gas tank at your next fill up. Done.
Liqui Moly Diesel Purge that I always pour in after a fuel filter replacement.
Pros: good one
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
Redline 85+ has worked well for me in past on my ALH, they also have diesel fuel catalyst
Pros: worked well
As far as fuel additives, they're best used to clean injectors and keep them clean. The best for this IMO and the one I use is Redline SI-1, best ingredients the details of which I don't recall of the top of my head, did the research long ago.
Pros: clean injectors
I have run all of these tests and can confirm the additives in V-Power do have an effect on engine cleanliness, engine power and fuel economy. Long term use of V-Power (or equivalent) WILL ensure your engine runs at it’s best and will improve and maintain fuel economy and engine power.
Pros: engine cleanliness, fuel economy
You're probably better running premium fuel and oil rather than using additives. Stick with Shell V-Power and Shell Helix/Castrol EDGE and ditch the Redex.
Pros: premium fuel and oil
Cons: ditch the Redex
Vehicle:
