    Bigay lang po sa akin ng pinsan ko. Kaso I am having hesitation na ilagay sa 4D56 TDIC ng strada ko. Safe po ba sa engine ito? :?: :?: :?:

    Imo, you could try the product as claimed by the users on the ads. But I would strongly suggest you DO NOT FOLLOW them when they drained the oil from the engine while running. Better fill it in when you have your next oil change. :D

    No harm naman siguro iyan. Kung bigay lang I'm willing to pour it into my engine.

    Just don't expect them to deliver on the claims na nakalagay sa packaging. And they're overpriced, too. At least libre ang iyo.

    These lube products are called "snake oils" by the established petroleum companies. I am not saying that this one is one of them.

    If I remember right this was the explanation - these lubricant enhancers may contain chlorine, which attaches itself instantly to surfaces. This will cause the oil to bind itself to the metal components of your engine - even if the oil is drained - a film or chlorine will remain coated on the metal. Much like after we swim in a chlorinated pool, our skin is coated with a white chalky film. Anyway this is good for the engine, BUT in time the chlorine will transform into an acid (hydrochloric?) which will eventually be harmful for your engine. I do not know if an engine flush or oil flush will help in between oil changes.

    If you have the resources and time - first do an oil flush using cheap oil. Put in your usual oil and add the additive. And after the lifetime of the oil have it analyzed by a lab.

    Sir Freeman,
    Thanks for your splendid explanation. Anyway, I'd already poured it into my engine. Haven't noticed any improvement....just the same....my engine is running smoothly.....
    Just hoping it is really non-hazardous and reduces engine wear....
