I have always been believer in duralube, but how will ARX effect it if at all. I don't plan to run any untill the treatment is complete, but after I get finished with the leaky seal treatment and start the maintenance does, will duralube and others be effected by ARX?
I just bought a 95 Infinity J30 that has a leaky rear main. The car has 157,000 by the way. I am in hopes that this will work and not have to spend $400 to get it fixed. I will keep everyone posted as to how it works. I like what people are saying about this stuff so I hope it works.
I was wondering the same. I was wanting to try QMI Engine Treatment after both treatments of Arx are complete but i was wondering if the maintenance dose was going to compete with teflon in the engine treatment. Or if it was ever worth it?
Other products are just snake oils compared to auto-rx.
Considering throughout the history of oil treatments one thing is certain, teflon doesn't belong in an engine. Even after the military tried it they later wrote a giant book (in excess of 100 pages if I recall correctly) on how to remove PTFE from an engine!
Heck, even dupont has came right out and said, "Don't put it into your engine!"
Auto Rx will clean all metal surfaces, including oil galleys, allowing oil to reach and lubricate everything. There will be no need to use such products. It is my opinion that not only do these products not work, but that they can do more harm than good.

Auto-Rx has friction reducers in it,s chemistry there is no need for any other friction additive product. Especially when the Auto-Rx Chemistry would remove the "additive package' as a contaminant. Why waste your money? for products that at best minimal in productivity.
