- In this video, I try the at-205 to see if it would repair this leak in my truck. I had my Doubts on a bottle for $12 of liquid to fix an oil leak that could cause potentially thousands of dollars to repair at an auto shop. I tried it and you will be surprised at the results! Check out the video! good luck!!!

Beautiful video review i just tried it only 20 miles run and it sure did work cant wait to make it better as more that i drive thanks for the long term affects
Is your leak still gone?
It works. I also spray it on all my bushings and rubber under the vehicle too. Quiets all the squeaks
You spray it? Really....that's kind of ingenious. That really works?
Bought this on Monday after watching your video and all I can say is holy shit and why didn't I hear about this stuff 3 years ago. I have an 05' Sierra 5.3L with a rear main & steering gear leak. Both were leaking an embarrassing amount of fluid, esp the steering gear. I put most of the bottle in the crank and the rest in the power steering pump, set my engine run timer on the guauge and both leaks resolved in under 5 hours. One friggin bottle handled both leaks! The steering gear leak held out to 4.5 hrs while the oil leak dried up after 3 hours of run time. If I ever become incontinent I may just chug a bottle of this.
NICE!!!
Hahaha!
Sounds like the precursor to a new WARNING LABEL ... 😅
😅
Thank you for showing the difference trip after trip and the final result!
My 03 2500hd had the same issue. Had a wrecker come pull it away. Fixed my problem. Lol. Wish I knew about this beforehand
Thanks man for this video. Very thorough, how you followed along with your results for days. Awesome.
Thanks S Taylor much appreciated 👍🏻👍🏻
I was really apprehensive about using this stuff but I went ahead and used it anyway. It literally stopped a RMS leak that I've been dealing with for over a year in my Wrangler within 2 hours of driving. It's been 6 months and a couple of oil changes later and it's still dry. This stuff really works. If you're apprehensive about using it you're not alone. Just use it!
Great news James!! Happy holidays from High Ridge👍🏻
I'm gonna try it on the truck on my profile.
What about if you use full synthetic oil?
Thanks man I’m gonna try it
@hotwheel6663 you need oil change and add it.
I had a leaking valve cover gasket on my BMW 645ci...these cars are known to leak anywhere at anytime...no cheap fixes on any leaks. I was lucky that the previous owner just got the alternator bracket gasket replaced for 1000$ ....so now my own first leak....and since BMWs are so touchy I was hesitant to try the at 205. So far I only get a 2 hour drive in of the 5 hours suggested and there are no drops of oil in my garage anymore and the engine didn't seize either....👍
That’s crazy cause the valve cover gasket is metal
I have a audi s4 I wanna try this but I'm scared to
@@Ty0_5 no need to worry...I was hesitant first myself...since it basically looks like water. But I just added it again in my 645 because of the new oil change. I had 4 different leaks ....one still remains but it's also less.....Will keep doing it to all my older cars.
That is what i call a good review we need more of those thank you
Thank you!!!
Change your oil and filter, With clean oil, add the At 205, give it 200 miles of driving and the leak should stop completely! Must be used with clean new oil and you would just add one bottle in every time you change your oil and filter so the leak won't come back
Good advice, I was going to reply that my oil never gets dirty because it drips out so fast but, I think I will do the oil/filter and pour it in..
Do you top off the new oil and then pour this in, or pour in less new oil and pour this stuff in to make up for the amount of oil your car usually needs?
You do not need to refresh the oil before using this product. Check the manufacturers website.
This stuff fixed my front seal on transmission and rear seal on engine from leaking it’s amazing and safe for your car
AT205 just fixed my 99 Camry with rear main seal seepage, crank seal seepage and leaky valve seal that allowed a smokey start up. Didn't even use a full bottle.
Sonny or Sunny is BEAUTIFUL. Looks like he's living a good life . Love it
SONNY THANKS YOU👍🏻
Really good video,gotta try it on my Sequoia,rear main seal leak...
Good luck 👍🏻👍🏻
Good product.. one use in recommend area not in cooling or break system..
My '09 Infiniti M35 just turned 200K miles and is dry as a bone under the hood. I ran a full dose for three straight oil changes starting at 160K miles and now put 4 oz in at every oil change to keep everything nice and pliable inside the engine. Also use it on rubber suspension parts to kep them from drying out. Great stuff.
I said it before and I’ll say it again this stuff is Ike Liquid Gold👍🏻👍🏻
@@HighRidgeHandyman do you put entire bottle ? saw some negative reviews on amazon
Makes sense the stuff might help rubber bushings. Definitely need to experiment a little.
Just an update. Car is at 255K miles with oil changes at about 4K intervals. ~4oz added at each oil change. Still no drips or seepage anywhere.
I'm still cleaning. from the front & working my way to the back 👍🏼. thankyou .
I have an 1988 Wrangler, going on 400, 300 miles !! 2nd engine, with less than 2,000 miles, had an oil leak, near rear engine seal. I just bought some of this stuff through NAPA for $11.99. Keep your fingers crossed !!
Good luck👍🏻 let it do its job and give it time. More time that went by it got better for mine. Take care thanks for watching DOC!
Did it work on the seal?
@@bcmiller2000 I haven't tried it yet. I want to change the oil first. Everyone I know who tried it, has had good things to say. That's all I can say, at the moment.
@@doctorartphd6463 review
2 years now
@@doctorartphd6463
This works. I have been using it for a year.
It works. Stopped rear main seal leak.
Fixed a small leak in a 30 yr. old motorcycle hydraulic clutch slave unit. This stuff seems especially good for hydraulics because it doesn't take much.
This stuff is like liquid goldddddd👍🏻
I have a inner cam tensioner seal leak. You think itd safe? And how much should I add to the oil?
Based on what I've read in product reviews I would first drop my oil pan and use paint stripper on the inside of the pan to avoid having paint that delaminates clogging the oil pump. Other than that the rear main seal is what Id use it for.
Who really cares about the paint on an oil pan? Nobody!
@@dontrustwhiteyevery1 until it strips it off and it clogs up your system.
@@dontrustwhiteyevery1😂😂😂
Used it for a small leak and it worked amazing!
Nice!!
@Steve Boldt what did you do exactly? How long? How much? How many hours or mins? Did you change fluid right away?
@@erinericsson Had a small head gasket leak and pored in entire bottle into existing oil and as claimed stopped the leak in 5 hrs! It rejuvenates rubber seals and gaskets if not to worn. It really works!
@@stevestarr6395 Have you checked to see if thermostat is bad? I heard that's why head gaskets get blown. The guage doesn't read right to turn on the fan and the engine overheats.
@@erinericsson Thermostat is new and never has overheated.
Definitely gonna try. Good lookin🌻
GOOD LUCK. Let me know how you make out😉
It's still a temporary fix. Better than nothing but yeah, it's still going to need a mechanical repair before long. I like it though. Like you said, if you're short on money or time, it's worth a try
I think that stuff may work I'm going to give it a try as soon as I find out where I can get it.
Good luck with it👍🏻
This is a good video. I would use some caution though on what you decide to put this in, I'm hesitant to pour this into a crankcase on a vehicle I'd be keeping for a long time. Years ago I was using a turkey baster to put this into a differential and I watched it react to the clear plastic on said turkey baster and it formed hundreds of tiny cracks on this plastic. I'm not an expert in plastic, but I'd be fearful how it could react to items such as plastic chain guides and other plastic components inside the engine. If it's your last ditch effort on a junker or it's the rear main seal yeah maybe roll the dice.
I've had amazing success with Marvel Mystery Oil, it can be used in the crankcase and other applications to clean. I've seen seals cleaned internally stopping leaks almost immediately. In my opinion it's a safer option to start with, I use about half of what the directions call for as it lowers the viscosity and / or add a little heavier weight oil in combination.
So basically no overhead cam engines
Ya I had a leak on my suburban but I had the trans out at one point and saw it was not the rear main I'm pretty sure it was the oil pressure sensor leaking
I"m tempted to try this on my 2017 Civic Si, it's a salvage Si with a junkyard engine that leaks a drop or two oil every day.
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻. I haven’t leak a drop since the video. So far so awesome!!! Glad I didn’t fork over a grand right before the holidays.
Not snake oil
2017 - Salvaged, with a junkyard engine. That car has had a hard start to life! Hopefully you can get the most from it. I have an 09 Si, don't know anything about the newer ones. On the old ones the valve cover gasket was a common leak, and the breather box on the back of the engine. For some reason the honda valve covers always like to leak.
Iam having this problem 2002 nissan altima 3.5 it leaks on my catalytic pipe. An then smoke comes from the oil. Iam interested in also trying this out. I tryed stops leak concentrate bottle. But still leaks
Depends where the leak is. If it's from the oil pan, this WILL NOT work. I have an 05 civic 5 speed & I tried on my oil pan, no luck! If it's coming from anywhere else than I'd def give it a shot.
Edit: * However, I never took this product into a spray bottle & sprayed it onto the rubber components itself. I'd say if the oil pan than try spraying the rubber gasket witht his product all around. Saturate it reall good & than go for a good run so they can bound together with the heat of the engine & the gasket expanding. *
Old C6 transmission front seal started leaking 1/2 qt. every week right after using Valvoline multi-vehicle trans fluid (big mistake). I flushed it all out, went back to Type-F, and tried a bunch of other products that didn't work, until I started using AT-205 along with Lucas Trans to prevent too much thinning. I don't drive the vehicle much, so it took several months, but now it is completely leak free. I also stopped the hydro-boost from leaking using the same two products together.
what oil do you top off with now?
@@codemajic8238 I don't need to top it off, because there are still no longer any leak. But if/when I need to do it, I'll use a mix of ATF type-F and Lucas Trans Fix because I have a feeling the fluids they are selling these days are just too thin for my application.
Add a uv glow n dark leak detector at the same time so you can really see the leak before and after
How safe is this product , will it mess up your engine & how often , do you have to use it , to keep engine from leaking again ? I have a Honda accord , 2017 v6
I used rislone 2 part engine Oil stop leak in my 2006gxp 5.3 it worked great and no il leaks or even seepage . Have not seen this product in Ontario Canada
It’s hasn’t been available to much in the states either. I’ll have to check out your product. Thanks for the heads up Nick King👍🏻👍🏻
@@HighRidgeHandyman I bought my gxp for $ 1100 Canadian but blown automatic needed some body work brakes paint touchup and had the 5.3 tic on startup so I added some lifter and ring cleaner ran a few times drained oil then I got leaks added the rislone engine stop leak ran a few times on 2nd run idle cycle all leaks gone , I add 1/2 bottle now every oil change . Rebuilt transmission and paint touch ups and brakes 3500 in total car and repairs and inspection. My repairs buff detail 2 coats of wax I get ton of compliments at gas self serve from young people car looks runs better than new . Oh the lifter cleaner was some Wynn’s ring and lifter cleaned it was discontinued at a tire store here in Canada so I got it very cheap last 6 cans . Used it since I was a kid working part time at a small town gm dealership in 1969 to 1976 it worked great but sometimes causes old leaks that were blocked by sludge . Have fun hope it save you money time and frustration on you with the rislone 2 part engine sealer
My 09 Highlander transfer case had a leak issue that was supposed to be covered under warranty but the previous owner didn't get it fixed. Sad too because it was in to the dealer for inspections and oil changes many times during the service bulletin repair period but was never repaired. Of course it may not have been leaking at the time, but since it was an assembly issue at the factory you'd think they would have done it. In any case I'll try to find some of this. Sounds like it'd work in gear oil in a transfer case. Thanks
Good luck K👍🏻
Did it work? I'm thinking about trying it in my SXS too.
Great Vid. I like how you said Cuz! and Kid! Same here. I'm guessing Italian? :)
Your guess is correct cuz👍🏻 thanks for watching kid!
@@HighRidgeHandyman No prob pison!!! Been a pleasure!
Beautiful pup
Thanks Yay Yay!!
It WORKS! Rear main seal drip and it STOPPED!
It’s like liquid GOLD!!
I'm having the same leak as you, gonna try this out.
Mine still hasn’t leaked since the video👍🏻. Let it work. It takes time but worked for me. Good luck KuvYog👍🏻👍🏻
@@HighRidgeHandyman yeah I'm curious if it would work on a Subaru 2.5 ?
They're finicky engines🤔
How does the additive smells like? Some says its fragrant is it right?
Can you use this stuff for manual transmission s???
Supposed to drain it put a new filter put in 205 then fill it with fresh oil. The fresh oil provides less friction which will help seal it and you can leave it in all the way till next oil change
Thank you sir, that's what I heard. I have a sweaty rear main seal, hoping one treatment cycle is enough so I don't have to keep putting it in all the time. I don't like the idea of something messing with my engine oil viscosity.
Fresh oil not needed. Check manufacturer website.
you have some nice tires.
Thanks cuz👍🏻
Hi - great video. Now would be 2 yrs since adding. Please could update - any further leaking? Did on any other oil changes have to add more of at-205? Any other gaskets or seals maybe effected negatively over past yrs? If not dripping between oil changes not having to add any oil say from oil burning? Thanks for any update. I have oil pan gasket leak and dealership wanting $1700 for new gasket. Is 2011 bmw 328i with only 75,000 miles. Thank again.
It held up fine for over a year. I’ve added 205 approximately seven months after the first with an oil change and it held up great. Good luck
Good vid man gon try it on my 5.3 suburban also has rear main leak
You are a kid playing video games. Stop fronting.
Just an update it aint do nothin. Guess I'll keep adding oil
@@forcedtomakeanaccount7628 When you correct grown folks. You tell people how young you are. Grown people don't go around correcting grown folks.
@@blackericdenice I didn't correct anyone but more importantly I wasnt even speaking to you. For an old man u got a lot of growing up to do if u tryna argue on the internet.
@@forcedtomakeanaccount7628 If you say so.
Some of your single drips after a couple of days was probably residual oil up in the bell housing that you couldn't wipe off. I'm about to put it in my 05 Chevy with the same problem.
Did this work for you?
As a side note, IMHO there needs to be clarification between "seepage" "a drip" and "a leak". Seepage is sorta normal and can occur for years in the same place under your engine w/o getting any worse. If it does, it becomes a drip where it pools somewhere on the bottom of the engine. A leak is when there is evidence or a pool under your car or it's dripping onto your exhaust and smoking. If all you have is seepage or a minor drip that's not near the exhaust, don't let a mechanic or state inspection person scare you into an expensive repair you're not ready for. Just use a bottle of AT205. It can fix most lighter issues.
Will do, I have a sweaty rear main seal on my 05 4runner. To my knowledge I haven't seen any drips or spill on the ground. I just hope one treatment cycle works long-term, I don't like have additives messing with the viscosity of my engine oil.
@@JonFox1945 You literally have 6-8 qts of ATF. a few oz of AT205 will not change the viscosity in any harmful way. It will do more good than harm by a long shot. Best of luck.
Great video. Can we get an update since it has been a couple of years? Is the fix holding?
It lasted until I sold the truck a year ago. Moved onto a new truck. Sometimes I wonder if I made the right choice 🤔
The product worked wonders for me👍🏻
@@HighRidgeHandyman Thanks for the update!
Intersting but I would wait longer period to see any leak.
Works on all rubber to restore it. Gets rid of those squeaky joints and bushing. Fix anything rubber. Stuff the repair shops don't want you to know. Heck, they don't even know.
For how long does it last 🤔🤔
Will it help on valve cover leak?
Did you confirm the valve cover gaskets not leaking? Common on these Chevy engines.
I did and already changed them👍🏻
does this work with a hyundai car that comes with a vvt valve system?
Thanks I'm gonna give this a try!
Good luck👍🏻
If you can find it. It’s on back order
Definately going to try this ATP Reseal 205! Question: Is that a Bruce Lee training technique at the end of the video? LoL....Good Video!

Do you have to put more in if you change the oil
If it doesn't drip, it's not a chevy

I added AT-205 to my 76 VW Bus camper. I''ve had it at 3 top classic car mechanics and they all say it's in great condition accept for the slight oil leak. Well, It's defiantly leaking a quarter size drip a day. So I put in the 205. 5 hundred miles later it's still leaking. Can I ADD more 205?. Will it be bad for the engine to add more ?. No one says that it's a major issue but the Bus still leaks with the 205. What should I do now?. Is another bottle going to hurt the engine. ?
Reply
Can someone help me? I changed the gasket on my valve cover and now my car is leaking oil will this help me?
Will it work on diesel?
Did you put this on a cold or warm engine?
When you're changing your oil do you add the at-205 first or after?
If needed I would add before then continue with engine oil until I was full.
We all have that REAR MAIN SEAL LEAK, MAKE YOU YOU REPLACE IT WITH AN OEM PART
I have the same problem with my JK. I am going to give this stiff a try. Can i leave the jeep running for an hour or so or should I make time for an hour or two drive? Worried about the paint chipping situation…
Not sure I don’t work on or own any Jeep’s. That’s definitely your decision. It does tell you to apply to warm engine. It took 4-5 days of driving a few hrs a day to see a difference. Good luck👍🏻
What paint chipping situation???
My Subaru is leaking oil from every place it CAN leak from except the crank seals. Looks like a job for AT-205, then.
How did it do?
@@joekni2002 Seems to have stopped the leaks for now. I'll be keeping an eye on it for a while, though.
Just got to deal with the rust now.
New truck coming soon. Stay tuned👍🏻
Whats about use after add this AT 205 in engine than 5 hours need to drive continuously or parked the car for 5 hours
Thanks
Drive it. It doesn’t have to be five hours continuously but it will take up to about five or six hours of driving time to start the show
Great
I had a really bad power steering rack leak and i use about an 1/2 ounce added to my steering pump, After i did 3 adds to the pump my leak disappeared about 95%, Its almost gone. I will probably do a couple more adds to my power steering pump and it should be great. This stuff works wonder but give it time and you might have to redo it multiple times, Make sure you don't overflow, remove some if adding more to your reservoir.
I have some faint creaking noise from the front suspension, I believe it’s just the bushing…I was recommended this product to spray on all the bushing to rejuvenate them. Does it work? Or have you never tried it like that?
I haven’t tried that but if it was recommended go ahead and give it a shot👍🏻
We went below freezing here in tx which never happens and my suspension got bad making all kinds of noises I hit all the bushings with one bottle and now it rides like a champ
My 750cc motorcycle is leaking some oil at the valve cover gaskets. I'm tempted to try but not sure? Anybody try this on motorcycles?
Will the AT-205 work on the oil "O" ring inside the oil pan? That is my major problem right now.
If the o ring shrunk a bit causing a leak this additive is formulated to rejuvenate the o ring .
You should always ad this when doing a new oil change
Note: do NOT give it 5 hours. Drive it immediately. Ideally you'd pour it in while it's running. This will melt paint off your oil pan (if you have a painted oil pan, curse the OEMs who do) if you don't mix it into your oil by running your engine, then it will clog the oil pickup screen and kill your motor by reducing your oil pressure to 0
Of course you drive it right away. It’s gonna take at least 4 to 5 maybe six hours of drive time. Not sitting for 4 to 5 hours. And you’re right about the paint. happens all the time!!
Which cars have an oil pan painted inside please? Thanks!
@@jrm163 Just look for your make and model oil pan in search bar, you'll see if it comes painted.

Do you add it with every oil change or just once and done ?
Did mine once and done👍🏻
Do you pour this on oil were the dipstick at or in the engine?
Can you ad it to rear end axles
Not sure. I never tried. If it’s got rubber gaskets Give it a shot . Good luck Trucker Trusted👍🏻
What parts did you replace before doing this
None,he just added the sealant...
Let us know if the leak comes back in the winter..
Plus I've heard it's good to use after every oil change?
So far so good👍🏻
Do you change the oil after 5 hours run time or leave it in until next oil change?
Leave it until next oil change
When you added to the bottle did you replace the 8 oz with the amount of oil you would have put in or do you just add it in total, also do you add it before the courts of oil or after?
I was about the 8 oz low due to the leak so I just added it right in to the existing oil and kept an eye on it. After adding it I drove the truck a few hrs per day like I normally would for work and it took 3-4 days for it to slow to a stop. Good luck with it👍🏻
@@HighRidgeHandyman but did you add more oil as well, I'm just trying to figure out if I am supposed to add the entire bottle before I change my oil or after I change my oil?
@@jcorral2 add it when you know you'll drive it for at LEAST 5 hours before an oil change. Their instructions don't call for doing it when you change the oil or changing it right after.
@@netflooder263 ... so far I've driven a car 520 miles and I think I can tell the leak has slowed a bit compared to before, but another question I have which I did ask the company was, do I add another bottle at a certain point since my oil is leaking, in other words if I fill it up with oil and add a bottle of at-205 and then 500 miles later my oil is down and I want to fill it back up do I go ahead and add other bottle as well, I would assume so because of my oil is leaking that means so is the at-205.
@@jcorral2 oh ok, good question, if it were my vehicle I'd stick to the recommended dosage of 8oz for 6qrt of oil. Meaning I wouldn't put another bottle of it in until after the next oil change or only add the equivalent of what it'd take to treat the amount of oil you've had to add based on their recommended dosage ratio.
Do you have to add it every oil change?
Yes
how much oil was in your car before adding AT 205? according to the dipstick
Close to full. Good luck
Heyy does this work for valve cover gasket leaks???
Try it
Is AT-205 the same as Seallube Seal Expander but different name?
Don’t think so
i suppose some of what you have been wiping may have been residual oil just making its way down.
It took almost 4 days of driving back and forth to work before it stopped. Slowly it sealed so I kept wiping after each check. So far so good since then 👍🏻
My ‘09 ES350 engine doesn’t have a gasket, it’s a silicone seal. It has a head cover leak. Will this work on it??
@@timmi511 not sure. Ive never tried it
Mines a major leak out the rear main seal and I have 0 oil pressure should I even try it or just move on
Majior leak? Won’t hurt to try. Maybe put two bottles in that bad boy. Good luck
I would like to inquire about AT-205. I am sending this email from Japan using a translation program, so please forgive me if it is difficult to understand. I would like to use it in the engine, power steering, transmission and transfer case of my old Land Cruiser. What is the best amount of oil to add to each part?
