Just ordered thx...

But what a pain walmart is...some items say pick up today...but you have to order online to get the price...and some in store items charge a 5.99 pickup charge if it's less than $35.

They're getting rid of in-app/instore price matching, but they price matched an item for me today...but was a hassle.

Then with walmart plus, an item says free shipping, then says pickup only in the cart. Multibillion dollar company and still can't get stuff right
Bandaid "solution" but if you have a beater with super high miles,
I guess it's worth a shot.

Depending on car, I would not use it on a car with less than 150k miles. Fix the issue properly and you will save more money in the long run.
I tried some a year ago in my Forester with 220,000 miles that was burning some oil and had noisy, tapping lifters. It cleared both issues right up (within about 100 miles of driving) and has remained good on both fronts even after a couple oil changes. It really did quiet things down considerably. It's pretty thick, so it also helps with any blow by and I got back 2-3 MPG while it was in use but not permanently.
As long as you have reasonable expectations of what "magic car goo" can do, it's good stuff. I know a lot of people swear by doing two treatments: one with maybe 500 miles before an oil change to clean things out and another with the oil change itself. I didn't bother since it fixed my issues with one treatment.

Wondering the same. Is it something I can use in a Subaru with almost 300,000 miles on it?

Only use this if you're waiting for a shop to get you in for a rebuild or you're trying to flip a shitbox to someone unsuspecting. If your engine is leaking oil it needs to be sealed. If you've lost compression, your rings are shot and it's time for a rebuild/swap.

From what I've read about these types of additives, it depends on each vehicle's issue and the manufacturer. I say manufacturer because seals aren't all made from the same material. Some will be conditioned the right amount while it seems it will cause others to deteriorate and cause more issues. If you have some worn rings, it could help fill the gap a bit.

Finding this product for this price - YMMV.
Using this product in your vehicle - YMMV.

This is a great deal. I would much prefer to waste $3.27 on something that is utterly useless than $13.79

Picked 5 up, as 2.4L crappy Kia burns oil, all of them do. Can't lose with this deal.
