AT-205 is polymers that keep rubber and plastic supple like new. It is perfect for seals like on axle shafts and crankshafts, however it probably won't work on gaskets such as the ones on oil pans and valve covers. I think that I'll try it on my 1959 Ford Fairlane automatic transmission (gear box). It has a rather mysterious leak. It looses a ridiculous amount of fluid when I drive, but there are no drips on my driveway. Of course, the fluid stays nice and clean. I usually just call it the "continuous oil change program" and keep on adding oil. I think that I'll order some today, and I'll let you know the results. Best wishes for your new channel. I just subscribed.
There's been tests that show metal-to-metal wear can increase with AT 205. Not conclusive but I'd rather put up with a small oil leak than risk wearing out my engine or gearbox prematurely. And if it's a big leak then a proper repair/new gaskets is the only answer. I would use this product for a leaking hydraulic power steering system where heavy metal-to-metal wear is less of a concern but leaks are a problem due to high pressure and aging rubber seals..
It is made of polymers in some suspension. My guess is that it will thin the oil some. Maybe it would help to use a slightly heavier oil. Our Explorer uses 0W-20 oil, so maybe using like a 5W-20 or 5W30 would be a good idea.
Is this safe on manual transmission for Honda? I read your review and now I’m thinking twice. Would love to try this additive. I refuse to bring down my transmission for reseal again.

Not aware of such studies, any links you suggest?
