The lubricity products have all been tested by professionals, including the mixing ratio; not a "trial and error" approach to adding something to a VERY expensive engine.
I dont think anyone thinks that warning about a warranty issue is out of line.

It sounds like you might have missed this scientific study:

Lubricity Additive Study Results - Diesel Place

The above was not a "trial and error." It was methodically done. Some folks just choose a product that exceeds Ford's recommended products especially when the owner will be the one paying for repairs after warranty. Ford just doesnt look very far past the end of thier financial responsibility.

I think its safe to say that OP's issue has nothing to do with the addative.
