I would bet that if you simply used a high detergent HDEO like Shell Rotella T for a couple of thousand miles it would do the same thing.
Detergency is the key in modern day engines! Not snake oil.
The bottom line is that for modern vehicles (less than 20-25 years old or less) most all manufacturers specifically tell you NOT to use additives of any kind as they may actually cause damage.
Demarpaint was the member who turned me onto MMO, I have always used synthetic oil in my car's and MMO did a great job of cleaning them up and making them run better. If MMO caused any engine damage we would have heard about it by now.
