Question Anyone SEAFOAM the RL?

I used to do this on my 99 TL and 05 TL, some CEL lights pop up but went away after few days. The car run smoother and MPG improves
I want to do this for my 06 RL but I am little scare since this car has more sensors, just want to ask if anyone here has done this before and what's the problem if any. Thanks for your opinion.

Snake oil; SeaFoam does nothing to improve the smoothness of an engine or to improve fuel economy.

Any contra-indications?
