Doesn't Work
Most Liked Positive Review
Seems to work
I added zMax to my 2008 BMW 128i to see if it would quiet a noisy lifter and it did! This is a low mileage used car and with the BMW long intervals for oil changes, no telling how few oil changes this car has had. zMax seems to have done the trick and the slight tapping noise is now gone. The engine now purrs like it should. Gas mileage also improved significantly, but not sure if that is just temporary due to better driving habits. I'm adding xMax to my other cars to see if I get the same positive benefits. Not sure I'll continue at the recommended intervals due to the price, but do plan to continue to use periodically.
Most Liked Negative Review
Too much whiz and not enough bang
Things that aren’t so great about it include price, its a gimmick product, and the manufacturer can not prove it works. The manufacturer has rigged test in there favor to prove how this lubricant works.

Are you serious?
To the guy with the Mini cooper. I can pretty much guarantee that when you put zmax in the crankcase, it overfilled it. It is not zmax's fault in product, it is your fault that you didnt pay attention to your oil level in the crankcase. Also, its very possible that your oil filter was complete garbage, since it is a known fact that poor quality oil filters will burst under pressure due to thin metal casings and poor oil inlets. Furthermore, I believe that if you think a microlubricant can eat through a rubber seal, you should not be anywhere near a vehicle. By the way, zmax is an awesome product, and i would recommend it to anyone who knows what they're doing.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend
