Press X for doubt. I need to see some independent research from places that can be trusted. That is a HUGE and bold claim. Also I doubt it would impact direct injection motors and their valves.

agreed. Valvoline makes great stuff. hell they sell race spec oil off the shelf at advance. but this defintely sounds like fairydust being blown up asses for marketing purposes.

I suspect they're banking on most people not having the ability to see inside the crankcase.

And to be honest, if you change your oil it likely is pretty good. My 08 JK with 110k miles I had to replace one of the oil pan gaskets. I took pictures and it looks pretty good inside from the bottom end at least.
