Question Oil Additives

Does anybody use oil additives in there GS's? You know for extra wear protection.

Thumbs down Down with additives

I don't recommend additives in general. I have always used good old synthetics with my recent change to Royal Purple for my car (The exception being the trans fluid). I believe it removes any need for any type of additive, including for the LSD.

HTH,

Peter

Talking

None for me, either, thanks.

But primarily because the general consensus is that they amount to snake oil.
