Fuel Injector cleaners and additives?
Just curious what, if any, fuel injector cleaners (or other additives) you all use on your X3's.

Once a year just before an oil change I'll dump a bottle of Techron in the fuel tank to take care of the injectors. About every 18 months I'll get a can of CRC Intake Valve Cleaner and run through the intake system to clean up intake valves in the GDI engine.

Where do you insert the CRC Intake Valve Cleaner? Do you remove the MAF sensor and spray in there?

MAF sensor stays in place. Intake valve cleaner is introduced behind the MAF sensor. I remove the protective plastic cladding from atop the engine to give better access to the clamps holding the air ducting in place. Either of the air duct joints that are downstream of the MAF can be loosened enough to insert the CRC cleaner straw. Follow the directions on the can.
