Has anyone used the EPR treatment from BG? I have a can and was planning on using it before my next oil change.

You used to get more people responding on this forum. Is this a dying forum?

 

Well, I've never heard of it so I imagine many others haven't either. Oil things don't generate a lot of traffic or sometimes too much. Ya just never know. But no, the forum isn't dying as far as I can see. TM

 

This is one place that specializes in oil questions:

I have used it twice in my F-Type, the first time at around 30,000 km and the second around 60,000 km.
Made no difference that I could detect but my engine has always been in great shape anyway.
It's really just an engine oil flush additive of which there are hundreds out there, all it does or at least is claimed to do is loosen/soften deposits such as gum, tarnish and sludge so they (or at least some of them) are removed when the old engine oil is drained.
I like BG products as a rule, they are top quality and I use BG 44K fuel system cleaner regularly so I though I would try the EPR instead of some other oil flush additive.
Bottom line - if you want to try an oil flush additive then the BG EPR is as good as any but don't expect miraculous results.

 

Thanks to all of you for the answers! I'm not expecting a miracle. I don't need a miracle. I just thought that it wouldn't hurt, since I don't know how it was treated by previous owners and the dealer that I purchased it from was very deceptive in his descriptions of the condition of the car. I would never buy from him again.
