This question has popped into mu head after reading and hearing many people make statements like:
"My engine is clearly quieter than it was."
"It runs much cooler."
"I notice less vibration..." "..my mirrors don't shake as much" "...you can now stand a coin on it and it does not fall."
"The oil is staying cleaner longer with the same filter and oil I've always used."
etc. etc.
Many say you only need to change your oil and filter every x miles and nothing else. If this is true, then why are others noticing the above? And no, this is not placebo.
I have a 2002 Honda Odyssey VTek 3.5 with 177k miles on it. The idling is insanely quiet and smooth for an engine of this miles that has travelled the country and carried large loads at times. This after I tried out an additive. Called my wife out to the garage and said "babe, you gotta check this out." It's her van. Too early to tell how long it will last like this but it clearly runs better right now than with just oil and I use high quality Shaeffer and Amsoil oils on our vehicles.
What say you?
