Engine Oil Conditioner ?

[LeonTexas]

Any opinions on whether or not, on getting the recommended “Engine Oil conditioner” from the dealer? ...Or is it just a marketing ploy?

Its a ploy by the dealer. Most modern engine oils have all the additives that you would need for a clean running motor. Just dont ask the question which is the best oil and which is the best filter on the forum [emoji854][emoji51]

Recommended action: take your business to a shop that’s not trying to scam customers with snake oil supplements.

I'm of mind to only put engine oil in my engine. But I would ask them why and what does it do? Does GM recommend this? Is it in the owner's manual?

No, it’s definitely some BS Scam. The manual does not specify such “service”.

That’s a new one to me.

Just an attempt for easy money. Like @swathdiver said, grill 'em about it. Then I say to tell 'em NO.

Ask them what condition their condition is in.
