You see, if you were adding these things and not actually putting in the proper viscosity oil during this time. Most of us don't notice the drips until they're all over the driveway.

Typically we as drivers do not pay attention to a fluid leak in it's early stages. I personally don't believe you can buy any product that will fix faulty seals and gaskets as you drive. My concern is that the additives, although advertising a sure fix, may have made your problem worse. The initial oil leak will most likely be attributed to a worn seal or gasket.
