I've used it a few times. last time I ran it in my crank case for a drive to work and back Approx 20 miles rounds trip. I changed the oil as soon as I got home while it was nice and hot. What came out was the blackest black oil I've ever seen, a bit of sludge and some nice bits of metal.
I can't say that that flush did anything positive or negative but Seafood definitely got the crud out. I just don't know if thats a good thing or not.no codes or issues from doing the flush.
I think as long as you change your oil regularly it doesn't matter. I change mine every three months regardless of how many miles go on it.

Bom2002- I have not tried it. Just happened to be sitting at my computer and goggled it to see what the deal was. Like all rover owners I am always on the quest for more WARP speed. I'm probably got to get some.

matt3502, lol, I don't know about WARP speed but if it does half of their claim it is definitely worth it, specially if it reduce's friction which will lead to longer engine life and lower temp. If U ever got it, make a temp reading before and after and let us know please.

So my D2 is supposed to be the guinea pig?? My wife is getting pretty tired of seeing the UPS guy drop off boxes from AB as it is. I can only imagine what she might say if they have to drop off a new engine!

Haha. That's funny stuff. There are a lot of teck writers, but if you know about (David Vizard) he is in a league of his own as far as testing everything on his own dyno and using his own build mule engines, he never wrote any thing unless he tested it, that's why after a while nobody really wanted him to test their products, cause if it was B.S. product he flat out wrote its good for nothing, and companies hesitated to have him test their products.(Israel military never spends money on crap, they have tight budget and spend it wisely "even tough we pay for it")
