    XR1 MSDS listed chlorinated paraffin as one of its ingredient, same with Bardahl B1, but as they say, it only calls for shorter OC interval because they also contain metal deactivators or anticorrosion additives that neutralize acids, until they are depleted.

    But do we really need extreme pressure additives in our engines.

    Generally speaking, this X-1R engine treatment will not be of good use for newer, well maintained engines. Modern motor oils are already formulated with the right and advanced additives to meet different engine demands.

    On a personal note, I did try some engine treatments in the past on my preowned '89 Daihatsu Feroza like Duralube. Since I got my Feroza with significant mileage on its odometer, the engine response was not really good until I did major tune ups from spark plugs, high tension cables, carburetor, air filter and change oil. I did add Duralube (which is very similar with X-1R). I observed better engine response through time and cranking it was not a difficult thing to do. I guess X-1R will do work on older engines.

    I've been using X1R in my 2013 Innova vvti since 10k odo. Now its on 39k+ odo and no issues. Napansin ko lang na tahimik ang makina at pinong pino ang tunog lalo na pag high rpm na. Sarap ihataw. Minsan di ko napansin 100kph na pala kse ganda ng takbo.

    Sa 40k mag change oil na ulit ako at naka ready na ulit X1R.

    Btw, bago ko sinukan ito ni research ko muna ito at tumingin ng mga reviews at ang deciding factor ko ay yung NASA certified. Kung false ad ito cguro naman matagal na itong pinasara sa US.

Anyone who tried X-1R engine treatment?
