Will this create additional wear on the engine and is it safe to use products like this on 14 year plus older vehicles?

No it is jus a thing to watch over your vehicle to help you with gas mileage. It does not give you increase in horsepower. It jus monitors the vehicle

I was warned by my mechanic that if you put this product in a car that has a factory warranty, the usage may void that warranty. Other than that I see no reason not to use this product. You will run into skeptics, it sounds too good to be true.

I've only used pads like the one it came with but.....with care you can get a lot of life out of them. I guess it depends on how you're using them. I can repeatedly buff & polish my vehicles for at least a year before I slap on a new one.

Yes, do not mix with any other coolant and do not add water. Change interval from factory is 11 years. Just top off when needed.

I would only use it on older cars. Apply it and then Buff it off like a wax. Then you apply the wax and buff it off.

None of the ingredients look like they could cause harm to the engine or cause a fire. I would spray around the engine. I would spray on the sides of the engine frame work. Not directly on the engine. The fumes might bother you. Could flow into the car. If you try this let me know. Can't hurt

This is the long life coolant which is what used in your car. 11 year change interval. Just use this top off as needed.

If your vehicle is under warranty and having issues i'd just take it to the dealer. It is normal for manuals to list additives as not recommended, doesn't mean that they'll hurt it, just covers the manf. With that said, with how little a tube makes up of the total capacity of tranny fluid, I highly doubt they'd be able to tell.

The responses to these questions seem to be about engine leaks. This product if for radiator leaks correct, and how long will this solution last?

I suggest to use all the new parts that came with the repair kit where applicable as using old worn part will result in excessive and premature wear. Remember to use plumber grease and not ordinary grease.

I've been using Slick 50 since 1978 on every car i've had, and it never has failed to make my engine's perform better and quieter. I even used it on my riding tractor mower, with a Briggs & Statton 8 hp motor, that was 15 years old, and it ran faster and quieter than when it was brand new. Ted Smith, Myrtle Beach, SC

does not cause bubbles in the oil. I have been using this product for over 14 years. My Camaro has 295,000 miles and engine still going strong with no problems.

I would suck it out and get rid of it. The product will likely stop your head gasket leak for a short time, but will cause much more damage to your engine in the long run. Therefore, unless you only want to run your car for a few more thousand miles then junk it, I would not use the product at all. That's my opinion.

From my understanding it can be used in any cumbustable engine without doing harm or anything to the warranty of the vehicle but for peace of mind call the dealer where you purchased the vehicle from and they would be the better expert to answer that question.

I don't see it causing harm but being such high miles you may not see the affects as well. I would probably buy it juat ro try to get the last bit of juice out of the motor. I'm not a mechanic just a truck enthusiast.

Im sure its possible if you get a better motor and battery, but it will probably cause you to need to upgrade other things to deal with the increased wear.

From the companie's website, "this protectant is safe to use on all products, from your vehicle's paint job and leather seats to internal engine parts." Just wipe it off.
