I own a 1994 Toyota Camry V6 with 80,000 miles. The car is used mostly on short trips with 3000 mile conventional oil changes. I just finished my first complete AutoRx treatment. The auto runs much smoother but has developed a small oil leak.I know this a common occurrence and hopefully the leak will stop. I cut open the oil filter and saw the the AutoRx has cleaned the engine. My question is should I do a second AutoRX treatment because of the age and use of the auto or should I just do a maintenance dose of AutoRX.

Where's the leak and in which stage did it start? I'm curious because I have a 94 Camry V6 in the rinse cycle now. I haven't had any leaks develop, and I was planning on a second treatment once this rinse cycle is done. Mind you, my Camry has 200,000 miles.
Apart from cleaning the coke from the oil filler I didn't see anything appreciable out of the engine in terms of sludge/dirt/etc. It did work wonders for a small P/S leak though.

My Camry developed a small leak from the rear main seal during the cleaning phase. I've decided to do a 2nd AutoRX treatment and see what happens
I think I jinxed myself.
I started my second ARX cleaning and have now developed a small leak. Looks like the front seal. I guess I will just wait out the clean and rinse and see if it gets better. Hopefully, it won't get worse!
