Additives. What's the latest word for 6.7s..

The last topic I could find was a couple months ago. Anything new on the additive front? I have lots of PS/MMO mix left over from my 5.9 but I don't know if I should use it. I also have a couple cases of Diesel Power that I also don't know if I should use.......
Is there anything out there made specifically for these new diesels with the DPF and that won't cause warranty issues.
Sorry for so many questions but you know how us newbies are.....

Why would you need additives? I never worked for an outfit that used them and I've never needed them in my engines.

AMSOil's additive has no ash residue and is made for the new low emission engines, Cummins, or what ever brand.

We use them as it gets -30 + windchill or colder here sometimes in the winter time. I don't think you would see them kinda temps in CA.

Check your existing PS bottles to ensure you have the ULSD formula then run it if it is. I have run PS in my '08 since day 1. Have 12500 on the clocks and nada CEL.

Well, mine is mixed with MMO so I don't think I will use it. I used this for the last couple years but can't say I ever saw any advantage of using it. Just more $$$ out of my pocket....
