To my knowledge, oil additives are a good idea only if you start using them when you buy a brand new and you are the first person to own the car. It is not a good idea to use them with a car you bought, when you are perhaps the third or fourth owner ; car with high miles, not good idea. The vast majority of oil additives are snake oil products. Leave them alone. Change your oil & filter religiously and do not put any additive in your engine.

Do oil additives release friction on a car part?
No, they do not release friction they reduce it. Some friction will always remain in the common modern internal combustion automotive engine. Engine oil additives actually reduce the amount of friction that can be very intense and harmful to a engine, especially when starting from cold. Chemical polymers and agents that make up the engine oil additives are designed and engineered to add a level of extra protection to the standard engine oil. However, a good name brand engine oil, installed into your vehicle with proper weight and viscosity and proper oil manufacturer recommended additives -which are already in motor oil from the manufacturer - is all that is needed. No other additives should be used unless the automobile manufacturer has suggested it's use.
