I used CRC GDI IVD Turbo & Intake Cleaner at my last oil change.
Turned the little car into a rocket a few days after application. Stopped the misfires too and oil consumption came to a halt ... for a bit.
I was up to almost 40,000 misfires logged per cylinder. That stopped so it was likely valves not sealing properly.
I am about to do another oil service and looking to send another can of this through.
Can't find IVD anywhere from CRC over here anymore. They now have something called GDI Valve Cleaner. Mind you, it says "GDI Valve Cleaner Pro" on it.
This is the SDS for the IVD version I used before:

And this the SDS for the one I have now:

I can't see these being the same thing on these SDS.
Not a chemist or chemical engineer, so have no idea how different these 2 products from CRC are.
I'm thinking the original stock of valve cleaner was sourced from the USA, but this new stock might be from the EU and formulated differently. I should've kept the empty can of IVD.
Can someone with more knowledge on these chemicals give me an indication of how different they actually are?
