I swear it sounds better already. I am going to do the oil treatment in a month and maybe the intake too.

Well take it off the shelf and put it in yer car man!!! Some good stuff! I use it in my E420 and my F250 7.3 powerstroke! I add it to my oil just before a change ! Keeps it nice and clean!!

Default You're going to need the whole can for the gas if you want to do that.
I've used it on my A4 with only 72K and it still helped.

Default I just added a can to 18 gallons the other day. Seems fine, I've heard on the 12V Forum....
NOT to put it your oil if your seals are suspect, it could increase leakage with rubber parts. But others on that forum say to just put it in your oil for 5 mins idle time before you drain it and it does its magic. I might try it but keep us posted on your results.
By the way, how are the Konis?

I am still having issues with ride quality. We have to tighten the top bolt and see what happens.

Default Hmmm...the Konis are adjustable from what their website says. Perhaps one of them was on a...
different setting..? The only way is to yank them out and check them, a pain. Keep me posted.

Default A guy on the 12V Forum says just 5 minutes running in neutral will do the magic. Too long will...
work on the seals and that's bad! Plus, the dislodged carbon and deposits must immediately be flushed out of the oil.
