Allways changed the oil with Mobil 1 full synthetic per the manual and at 3-5K intervals and as a daily driver, it never, ever, ever burns any oil. I guess we would have to see some solid tests or long-term issues with such stuff. Might be a waste of cash too??
Well, it's supposed to bond with the metal over 1,000 miles or so, then you don't need to use it. So I'll leave it in from 4k - ~7k then do a mid-point change. It may be a waste of money, but I don't think it is going to harm anything.
