Question on Manual Transmission Oil Change

Do you recommend any additives like SLICK5000, graphite based - any experience with them - clumping or clogging. I know OEMs do not recommend them, just curious if there is some real world experience.

I have no experience with it.

I do not recommend them--in fact, I really dislike those additives.

That said, I have never lost an engine to an additive. Mostly because I don't use them.

If the additives really did help, they'd be in the oil already.
