Not in a Mercedes diesel. But I had a 91 BMW 318i that started to consume oil at a pretty good clip. Ran really well, didn’t leak, didn’t smoke. Very strange.

I used this stuff and consumption reduced reasonably well; to the point that I was over 1000 miles per quart, from around a tank and a half (-500 miles).

Not scientific. Just figured I’d try it because the car was such a great driver and commuter, but just lost too much oil.

I’m not convinced that this stuff fixed it by increasing viscosity. There was something else to it.

According to their website, Restore does not affect viscosity.
