If you mean diesel additive, the answer is 'none' - if decent fuel is used and the car is driven properly there is no proven benefit, and PSA themselves recommend heartily that no such ungents are used on the common rail motors.

if they recomend no aditives then why was i told by pug when I was a master tech that wurth aditives where ok to to use?? oh yeah that right they have a deal with them dont they!! lol. anyway if you want to use a diesel aditive in there first replace the filter and use some forte diesel conditioner, really good additive and if you really want to go over board use some forte engine flush and then change the oil and filter aswell before using the fuel conditioner. you will be amazed at the crap that will come out with the oil.

I know of a high pressure pump failure on a 407 and the arguments went on for weeks. In then end PSA themselves dealt and upon testing the fuel told the owner to 'go away' as an additive was present and they recommend they don't be used.
A disparity between what they tell the trade and the public? Nissan used to endorse Wurth products too (i use them myself to this day, though never fuel additives) so some deal doing probably was going on somewhere.

I`ve used Forte engine flush and fuel additives every service for years and so do many main dealers,its exellent stuff and they only sell to the trade.Peugeot use it to cure faults but would never admit it.Its all corporate/political bull sh!!!* and any trick to get out of paying for a pump they will do. (by the way your in the wronge spot for a 307)

The full shelf of Forte products available retail down here, most notably at Motorserv.
I never use any additive, unless there's just cause, such as oil contaminated from HGF, or a contaminated fuel system etc needs a going over.
