It's actually recommended by Hyundai for their cars at specified intervals.

I think you're going to see more widespread use of these cleaners like this deal as more and more engines go GDI with forced induction (turbo or supercharged). It might not remove the need entirely to walnut blast the intake, but it should keep the buildup to a minimum. Hyundai put it in their 60k maintenance window for their GDI engines.

If you buy gas at chevron it has this additive already in it. Pretty much all top tier gas will have a blend of some detergent.

If ethanol is a solvent what is the point of putting this in my fuel tank?

Just use a top tier gasoline from the start; cheaper and easier.

Maintenance schedule says the additive is not necessary if you use Top Tier fuel, but I use it anyway.

No, there's a reason that detergents are mandated in gasoline.
Detergent in fuel is exactly the reason why these are placebo.

This does next to nothing for valves on a direct injection motors. It will help clean the injector nozzles if you frequently use gas without added detergents.

Instead of buying half a gallon of discounted snake oil, do yourself and your car a favor and spend this money on a new fuel filter. Pretty much all gas in US is premixed with detergent.

People complain about additives and most are snake oil. This is one of the only lab-proven formulas. It doesn't help as much if you're habitually using top-tier gas...but I'm saving 40-50c/gal by using Murphy/Walmart and add this every few fillups. Still, this isn't a good deal.

Here's the truth about fuel system cleaners.
1) Top tier gasolines already have this so this shouldn't be necessary. What makes top tier gasolines qualify is that this exact same cleaner or something similar is already included in the gasoline in sufficient amounts to prevent buildup.
2) Top tier doesn't necessarily mean top price. Costco is top tier and is one of the cheapest gasolines you can buy.
3) If your system does get dirty due to the use of non-top tier gasoline, then this would be helpful.
4) Direct injection engine intake valves and intake plenums will not be helped by as this will not hit them. It will help on everything else.
