Its not the anti sieze that causes the problems... The bolts have to be overtorqued or under torqued which causes them to loosen, stretch, or break..... Properly torqued bolts ( manifold / engine / pumps/ turbines / generators / and even lug nuts) will not have problems due to anti sieze.

true
but if you used oil or anti-seize you can`t
used the torque giving in the book`s or
you will over torque the stud and stretch,
or break them. the torque giving on stud
is base on dry stud and nuts . There are
other place that they want clean tread and
lite oil but not on wheel stud
In the video he show you the danger of using anti-seize on your lug nuts
(with a dry torque rating) and the potential failure it can lead to.

re:... you can`t used the torque giving in the book
There is NO mention of wheel nut torque in my '97 F150 manual ! I looked at every friggin page back in 99 when I got the truck, so I went with 100ft-lbs and it's still on the road even WITH anti-sieze.. yeesh 20 years and counting. One problem with any video or report is that unless one and ONLY one person does the service, YOU never truly KNOW what was done. I mean really, WHO keeps records of 'wheel nut torques'..date, tool used, etc. ? I'm also betting very few actually retorque nuts 50 miles down the road ....

Does anyone use the torque limiting socket extensions when using an impact wrench to tighten lug nuts? They are designed for use with an impact and will flex at a given torque and stop tightening lug. I think the torque rating is determined by the diameter and length of extension shaft. Have seen them used in a number of tire shops here.
Edit; don't use lubricate on any bolts or studs nuts that are to be torqued as it allows the nut to turn with less friction in the threads and gives false torque readings.

Overtorquing may not get you the first time done but over time the damage is cumulative. Some applications specify lubetorque but if the specifications do not call for lube it should be torqued dry or the torque value adjusted. A lot of manuals do not specify a torque value and then you should use a standard torque value for that particular size and pitch thread. Wheel studs are quite resilient and withstand a lot of abuse. Another thing to consider of self locking nuts is drag torque; it a nut does not have enough drag it should be replaced. Now that I have muddied the water I'm outa here!

Lug torques are for clean,dry fixtures.....almost no place will give the fasteners that kind of attention....
