    Hydraulic Valve Lifter Treatment , will it stop noisy tappet/s?
    A friend told me to get some of this today after the redex didn't work. Will this HVLT stop or reduce the sound of noisy tappets?

    Do I pour it into the same place the engine oil goes and should I pour the full 375ml bottle of it into the car? thanks

    Try an oil change first but use a heavier grade of oil. What car is it?
