Capacity: 250 ml

BARDAHL 118018 – TOP GASOLINE + HYBRID 250 ML

Bardahl Top Gasoline + Hybrid is Bardahl's multifunctional additive for latest-generation petrol and hybrid engines, including Start & Stop and plug-in hybrids. It is designed for direct injection (GDI) and port injection (PFI): one 250 ml bottle is poured into the tank and treats about 50-60 litres of petrol, roughly a full tank. Drivers and workshops use it to clean injectors and valves and keep the fuel system efficient.

What it is for

According to Bardahl it is indicated when a petrol engine shows poor performance, irregular acceleration or rising fuel consumption. The typical causes listed by Bardahl are biofuel or low-quality petrol and fuel that sits in the tank for a long time, which is common on hybrids, where the combustion engine runs less, and for drivers who make short, repetitive trips.

Benefits

• ✅ Removes deposits from injectors and valves and keeps the whole fuel system clean, lubricated and responsive
• ✅ Improves combustion, reducing emissions and consumption, even on short, repetitive trips
• ✅ Contains a stabiliser that slows down the ageing of petrol in the tank
• ✅ Contains a Friction Modifier and protects against corrosion, oxidation and wear
• ✅ In Bardahl tests on a GDI engine: full restoration of injector flow, over 50% reduction of valve deposits and up to 70% reduction of emitted particulates (figures declared by Bardahl)

Dosage and directions

• Dose: one 250 ml bottle treats about 50-60 litres of petrol.
• Keep clean (maintenance): once every 3 fill-ups.
• Clean-up (system cleaning): once every 4,000-5,000 km.
• Pour the contents into the tank and fill up with petrol.

Compatibility

Petrol engines with direct injection (GDI) or port injection (PFI), including hybrids, plug-in hybrids and vehicles with Start & Stop. Petrol engines only: for diesel choose a diesel additive.

When it does not help: it is a cleaning and protective treatment and does not fix mechanical or electrical faults. An electrically faulty injector, a defective coil or spark plug, or a damaged lambda sensor or catalytic converter must be diagnosed and replaced.

Frequently asked questions

How much petrol does one bottle of Bardahl Top Gasoline + Hybrid 118018 treat?
According to Bardahl, one 250 ml bottle treats about 50-60 litres of petrol, roughly a full tank of an average car.

How often should I use Bardahl Top Gasoline + Hybrid?
Bardahl gives two modes: to keep the system clean (keep clean), once every 3 fill-ups; to clean the system (clean-up), once every 4,000-5,000 km.

Is Bardahl Top Gasoline + Hybrid suitable for hybrid and plug-in hybrid cars?
Yes. Bardahl specifically recommends it for latest-generation petrol and hybrid engines, including Start & Stop and plug-in hybrids.

Does it work on GDI direct injection engines?
Yes. Bardahl designed Top Gasoline + Hybrid for both direct injection (GDI) and port injection (PFI); the tests declared by Bardahl were carried out on a GDI engine.

What is the difference between Bardahl Top Gasoline + Hybrid (118018) and Top Gasoline (114018)?
Top Gasoline 114018 is for PFI port injection and carburettor engines and contains an Octane Booster and Friction Modifier. Top Gasoline + Hybrid 118018 is for latest-generation GDI and PFI engines, hybrids and Start & Stop, and contains a Friction Modifier plus an anti-oxidant stabiliser against petrol ageing. If your car has direct injection or is a hybrid, Bardahl's recommended choice is 118018.

What is the difference from Bardahl Fuel Injector Cleaner 101023?
Top Gasoline + Hybrid is a multifunctional additive for regular use (every 3 fill-ups or every 4,000-5,000 km). Bardahl describes Fuel Injector Cleaner 101023 as a shock treatment to clean PFI and GDI petrol injectors when performance has already dropped.

Are Top Gasoline + Hybrid and Top Gasoline Evo the same product?
Some retailers still call it Top Gasoline Evo; in current Bardahl catalogues the official name is Top Gasoline + Hybrid. The code 118018 on the pack is what counts.

Why do hybrids need an additive with a stabiliser?
On hybrids the combustion engine runs less and petrol can stay in the tank for a long time. Bardahl lists fuel sitting in the tank for long periods among the causes of problems and states that the 118018 stabiliser slows down petrol ageing.

Does it really reduce consumption and emissions?
Bardahl states that it improves combustion, reducing emissions and consumption, and reports up to 70% less particulate in its own GDI engine tests. Real results depend on the engine's condition: on an already clean system the effect is mainly preventive.

Can it be used on diesel engines?
No. Top Gasoline + Hybrid is a petrol additive; for diesel engines Bardahl offers the Top Diesel range.
