Oh I never thought you had any financial interest or anything, I'm just always skeptical of "engine treatments" because of all the back and forth about them and what they can/can't do in every automotive forum I've been on in the last 2 decades.
Thanks for the pointers on when to add and how far to drive. That's going to mean an early sat/sun morning here in the Bay Area if I want to be able to drive that kind of distance at highway speed unrestricted. I'll probably drive up to SF and back from where I live, or maybe over the mountain to see @Hammersticks. I just did an oil change last weekend along with DSG flush so maybe I'll put in an order and get it in asap so I have it in the motor for the next 5-6 months.
$87.75 shipped to me... If I do it, I will definitely post a video as I said. Not sure I will though. Can't really find anything that is a positive review beyond what you're saying here and the FakeSpot review score is an F... At least CeraTec has a C review score hahaha.
I don't know what the FakeSpot review is. I'll PM you and I'll buy a bottle for you if you promise to refund me if the "tapping" sound is gone. I've talked about this product in a few other threads where additives or engine tapping was talked about and I'm so sure it will work I just want someone to use it and post about it. The very first day I got my GTI I didn't notice the sound until I got out of the car with the engine running when I stopped at the cluster mailboxes where I live and heard the same sound you do and immediately ordered the treatment. Cerma recommends adding it after you reach 30,000 miles but I didn't wait and the sound was immediately gone.
