LIQUI MOLY Cera Tec 3721 I Ceramic Wear & Tear Protection for Petrol & Diesel Engines I Smoother Engine Performance, Less Friction & Lower Fuel Consumption I Ceramic Additive for Engine Oil I 300 ml

Product Information

Yes. A clean injector lasts longer because every contamination increases wear and tear in the injector.” Liqui Moly Cera Tec is a highly rated and popular oil additive on a global scale that is designed to reduce friction and wear within the engine. This is made possible by the ceramic compound, which can withstand high thermal and chemical loads. Amusingly ,this caused a fair bit of commotion among the people at the shop. Anyway, with the engine oil drained, the oil filter was replaced , a fresh can of synthetic engine oil was poured in and I was good to go. CERA TEC reacts directly with the surface of the metal and protects your engine for up to 50,000 kilometers - even with the oil being changed during that period. With some engine types that could be good news, but with others it means the engine life will not be improved. I am only thinking of using Ceretec because it might well help enough to make a cheaper top end overhaul possible, because the 1.9D in my Volvo is a very good diesel, but on average it fails from bearing and ring wear before cylinder head problems.

Below is a list of the best oil additives that will help reduce wear, heat, friction, increase fuel economy and help clean and protect the engine. Liqui Moly Cera Tec Friction Modifier Using an oil additive has many benefits that include a quieter and smoother engine that runs more smoothly with an increase in fuel economy too. Unlike other additives, the recommendations within this article deliver results and are not fake claims. If you need to add anti wear additives because your present oil has a low TBN or you are using some kind of supermarket dino oil that does not already contain a good balance of additives then Ceretec is a better choice. If you add too much Moly it upsets the way the different additives function. There is nothing worse than having a product that promises so much but delivers so little. However, investing into a quality additive for your oil can see a range of benefits and all our recommendations do as they promise. The designation E10 means the petrol contains up to 10 per cent bioethanol. This is intended to reduce the consumption of fossil fuels. However, E10 also has some technical features. First of all, ethanol has a calorific value that is almost one third lower than petrol. The more ethanol in the fuel, the lower its energy content. This increases fuel consumption. It can also have a negative impact on engine performance. The second point: ethanol is hygroscopic, so it attracts water. This can cause corrosion in the tank and fuel system.” Using fuel additives on your car So, should we all switch to the more expensive E5, or do you offer an additive to help combat the problems with E10?As an engine begins to age, debris and sludge can buildup, which can cause performance issues. Using an oil additive will help remove and move the debris away from metal surfaces. This will also help the potential of corrosion to exist. How Often Should You Use It?

Radiator cleaners There seems to be more cleaners that can help, such as LIQUI MOLY’s Radiator Cleaner. How does this work? The E10 additives by LIQUI MOLY improves combustion, thereby ensuring better acceleration, particularly in the partial load range. This compensates for the power loss to some extent. The petrol additive also contains highly effective corrosion protection, so it prevents damage to the tank or fuel system resulting from the higher water content. This makes it a good choice for any motorist who doesn’t want to have to deal with the disadvantages of E10. The additional glazing of spark plugs caused by Ceretec is only of concern if you don't change them at the correct interval and as most folks here are diesel fans, it's not much of an issue. Investing into a quality oil additive can completely transform the way your engine performs. However, it can also be used in a range of other oils that include automatic transmission fluid, differential oil, power steering systems and others.

My 2002 330i has over 245,000 miles on her, and she was using a quart of oil every 500 miles. I replaced the entire CCV system, OFH gasket, all vacuum lines, and everything in the vicinity with all BMW parts a year ago at 235,000 miles. The oil consumption didn't change. MoS2 is something we're using more and more around here with positive results. The N55 engine (single turbo 6 cyl with "Twin power turbo") has the same issue that many of that generation have with oil filter housing gasket leaks. It's different in that it has a oil/coolant heat exchanger bolted to the front of it. The outer gaskets (coolant to oil section) have a greater tendency to leak. Not only externally but also failing on the inside. This raises the possibility of coolant (has higher pressure most of the time) with the possibility of coolant entering the engine oil system. No bueno. The two gaskets have been redesigned 3 times. With the latest version being produced in Japan. Brilliant, they should have been doing this for years. Japanese cars don't leak.

All of our recommendations cover a variety of potential issues that can occur with older engines and even modern engines. Engine Compatibility Firstly I would caution you that it might not be good for the spark plugs if you have a petrol car, although that possible side effect seems fairly minimal. Secondly some of the engineers and chemical engineering chaps here in Germany have said that although the UOA results show an improvement in wear metals, it does nothing for cylinder head wear or carbon deposit issues, so if you use it about every 25K km (It doesn't seem to last as long as advertised) longterm, your engine will eventually fail because of valve seating or other top end problems rather than ring or bearing wear. If you are noticing that your miles per gallon is not meeting expectations, it may be due to the engine oil. If the moving parts of the engine are not lubricated appropriately, there will be an increase in friction, which means more stress on the engine. Helping lubricate these components with an additive can see minor MPG gains. CleaningCan you really save money by spending it on the right oils, additives and cleaners? We ask the experts at LIQUI MOLY on what products to buy. To help you make an informed buying decision, we have produced the below buying guide regarding oil additives. Before letting the engine get to this point, you should be either using an oil additive or performing an oil change. Increase Fuel Economy

Using an additive will put the motor oil to its correct viscosity and ensure the engine runs smoothly and at its best. Different Types of Additives otherwise apply when there is at least 5,000 km to go before the next oil change so that CERA TEC has plenty of time in which to have an effect He feels as I do: Keeping the rings clean & floating is paramount to overall engine health. Even the smallest amount of oil getting into the combustion chamber during compression/firing will lower the octane significantly.Our oils are officially approved by the car manufacturers. This means that they thoroughly test our oils themselves and only if they pass these tests, do we receive an approval. These approvals are the highest quality seal which an engine oil may get. Such an approval tells you that it is not only the oil producer but also the car manufacturer who stands behind this oil. This also makes sure that there are absolutely no issues with the warranty.”
