I’ve used it twice, once on a 300k Miles Mercedes sprinter fruit and veg van, it was a stop gap attempt to allow the customer to keep trading, the van is now on 411k and still running well. 2nd time was on an elderly couples 2007 Ford Fiesta, they couldn’t afford a head gasket repair so at £40 to keep them mobile, was a worthwhile gamble.

It’s not snake oil or automotive poison, the reason garages push it is because it can work.

So if it’s a choice between £500 or£40 to save you’re beloved 75 and you don’t have £500 I would suggest it’s a 40 quid gamble worth taking
