Thanks for your reply that is really helpful and interesting, I'm suprised to hear it cleared the blockage but then blocked the EGR! Anyway, the stuff is in the tank now but only managed short journeys so far. Interesting to hear you kept revs low, most folks talk about running the engine hard once up to temp to clear the blockage. I'm prepared to try this for a few tanks of fuel if needed as it seems cheap compared to stripping the turbo down, so I'm going to drive easy, at least for a while before I start to feel it out. I've never really used fuel additives so all new to me! Thanks again!

Does anyone have any experience of freeing up a sticking turbo (overboost I believe) using Forte additive by any chance? Gets good reviews on amazon, but longterm results are slightly unknown...
