Techron Complete is what BMW rebrands as their own fuel treatment. It's a must for people that have direct injection engines. I can't speak for the Lucas stuff as I've never used it. BMW recommend it every 3000 miles to prevent carbon buildup.

Chevron techron is the only cleaner I'm aware of that has PEA which is polyethylamine and is a unique chemical that actually works great for periodic maintenance of efficiency. Good price

All modern gasoline has detergents added, this is just a concentrate. If you've ever filled up at a Chevron station, you've already run this stuff through your engine. It is generally considered one of the best in class as far as fuel additives go.
Besides carbon buildup, the damage done by ethanol, particularly as it degrades and becomes gummy, is very real. I've had a stuck fuel gauge that this stuff fixed within 20 minutes of being added. I've also seen it even out a poor idle/possible miss situation presumably due to clogged fuel injectors in surprisingly short order. These things happen.

Redline SI-1 has more PEA than Techron but it's also way more expensive.

Nothing a regular Italian tune doesn't handle. Get on the highway running above 3000 RPM on low gear for a few minutes. For me, 100K miles on a GDI, never an issue.

I heard it was best to use in the tank of gas just before an oil change. Some of the stuff will inevitably end up in your oil in modern high pressure engines.

Direct injection motors have no fuel passing over the intake valves so this is of no benefit for them. Calling them out specifically is even more odd, considering this fact.
Huh. You better call BMW, Mercedes, Audi, and Porshe engineers. You seem to know better than they do.

You can tell them its to clean the dirty electricity that is produced from coal that sometimes ends up in car charging.

Quote from bhung :
Honda Service tried to sell me the fuel injection service for $245. I asked what this was, and they said it's for parts and labor to flush out the fuel injector lines. I initially said yes, but backed out after doing some research. I didn't need it as my vehicle only has 60K mileage and it doesn't have any gas milage issues.

I bought two of these instead and will do it myself. Some auto services are just rip offs.
What they are selling is totally different than this. Both Toyota and Honda offer this injection service and it's a substantially more labor involved thing than just dumping some techron into the fuel tank. Whether you need it is another issue, but the service they are proposing isn't just a high margin tank additive.

Techron fuel injector cleaner is $5 at Walmart. Is the main ingredient in both the same?
The COMPLETE version of this is a different product that's higher concentration. Same product, but this deal is for a more concentrated version of it.

Quote from Al-Haqq :
Always try to use top tier fuel. Independent testing from AAA showed 19x more carbon build up when using non top tier fuel (brand not fuel grade) as mentioned by consumer reports.

Typically store branded gas stations such as Walmart, Sam's Club even Bucky's are not top tier and hence you sometimes see lower prices at these places. They use a different supplier and don't put equivalent detergents in their fuel.
This. It really does matter. Using the Top Tier rated gas will not stop valve carbon build up on GDI engines, but it will prolong the time until you need walnut blasting to clean it off.

I just stick to fueling up at top tier gas stations [toptiergas.com], and even still, I try to stick to my few favorites on this list. I had my DI engine walnut blasted at around 50,000 miles, and was told that I probably could've waited a while! That's good enough for me.
The walnut blast is used DI Hyundai engines also.
Hyundai engines are famous for carbon deposits.
