    I just ran a bottle in my wifes 06 Mazda 3 and it is running way better. No more rough idle.

    I know people use it for maintenance purposes and my Taco only has 23k miles. Anyone use it in theirs? I really have no issues with my truck, but to keep the engine clean would be beneficial.

    Does it void the warranty though?

    Whether or not something "voids" a warranty is a mystical subject. Even if your warranty is valid, the stealership may throw all kinds of smoke and mirrors in front of you to dissuade you from getting it honored.

    So...y'know...best thing to do is learn to fix it all yourself.
