Just a very quick update on the long term test of my 3 work vans. The mpg is still showing an approximate increase of 9% but all sound a lot quieter when first started regardless of outside temp. I drive the caddy daily and my mate borrowed it the other day to go to the petrol station and commented how smooth and quiet it was. Not had chance to try the grease yet but if the oil supplement its anything to go by it will be a decent product.Club Exped trailer

I have been running mine now with TSL. noticeably quieter but not yet enough evidence to confirm any mpg improvement. However, that was not my main reason for purchase - quieter and less wear and tear being priorities.2005, TDV6 S, Auto, 190k miles, owned from new, V8 Brake Upgrade, Nancom Evo, RLD protector, BAS EGR blanking & Remap, separate ATF cooler, changing all the fluids ahead of time.

I've done 1,200 miles since adding TSL. Can't be very scientific as "winter" diesel seems to always affect mpg. Plus I haven't done many of my regular motorway journeys over the few weeks. But I reckon I'm getting at least 1mpg more overall. Maybe nearer to 1.5mpg at m/way cruising speed.
As others have said, starting from cold is amazingly quick. It was never an issue, but now it's super fast.
Seems to be worth using

Hi
Put my TSL in 7 days after my service so could tell the difference from having the service done. Can report that starting is now a pleasure and just so much quieter, but also quieter when warm.
Did a normal 140 mile round trip today to work and over the winter have not seen MPG as good, so well pleased.
Mainly the piece of mind when starting has sold me, the exta MPG is also good,
Thanks Hess, will be getting some more when next service due.

It's with great sadness that I will no longer be selling TSL in the United Kingdom
as my selling rights have been revoked by the importer in The Netherlands.
I am very surprised at this as I simply got a letter from them today that
there will be no further correspondence nor cooperation of any kind
effective immediately.
Why? I don't know but I am bewildered to say the least.
So, I have sent out the last orders today and will not be sending out anymore.
I thank you all for your trust in me, for buying the product and trying it out.
Not the start to the year I was anticipating, but it seems others have different ideas.
Again, thank you.
Hess

Hi Hess,
Really sorry to hear the bad news - was revving up to post another positive review!
For what its worth I thought you were doing a damn good job of selling the stuff.
Anyway, all the best - good luck for the future
Richard.

Thanks very much for the kind remarks, private messages and support.
Will take a small breather and then go and look for something else
Quite liked the whole selling thing, so will try a different type of product!
Thank you all sincerely,
Hess

Hess, that absolutely sucks like a Dyson and stinks like a Kipper that has been kept in the boot for 5 years.
You were not just doing a Damned fine job of selling the stuff, but overcame an absolutely huge level of skepticism and doubt with a level of self belief, sheer determination and effort, the likes of which alone have truly earned you a simply huge amount of respect and admiration on this board, regardless of the product.
I am quite sure that whatever they have planned, will in some way or another be capitalizing on all the hard work you have put in to promoting TSL and as such i strongly advise you to seek legal advice on this.
