It is totally unnecessary. Modern oils used by Toyota and others is designed for strict tolerances in the engine. If anything, just don't wind out the engine during the first 1,000 miles and have the oil changed at 5,000 miles. After that you can extend the change times further depending on the usage (hard environments, hard use, towing) you place on the engine.
Break-in Oil Additives
Guys ... i will be getting my new car soon. What is everyone's thought about putting in break-in oil additives into the motor oil. I am not thinking about changing the motor oil that comes with the new car but just adding in additives.
Is it good to do it OR it's better to not add in the additives?
Appreaciate you thought on the subject matter.
