Did you notice the noise coming from your car engine getting louder and much rougher than it used to be when your car was still new? And the gradual increase in fuel consumption leaves you clueless as to what could be the cause of it?
Well, one of the major cause is due to frictional wear in the engine! Whenever two surfaces slide over each other, friction is produced which leads to wear down of both the surfaces, whether on the pistons, cylinder walls, crankshafts or other moving parts within the engine.
Why does engine wear still happen even when I’m using quality engine oils?
Well, the most substantial cause of engine wear that most people did not know is that more than 70% of engine wear occurs during startup of the engine, before the engine oil is circulated to the entire engine to lubricate all contacts between parts.
Furthermore, even when the entire engine is lubricated by engine oil, the moving parts within your car’s engine are subjected to high pressure and load, hence metal to metal contact will still occur.
I’m following every scheduled service, can’t I just ignore it?
Well, ignorance is bliss, but definitely not in this case. If we choose to ignore or don’t do anything to prevent wear from gradually damaging your engine, it will eventually burn a hole in your pocket with expensive repairs, parts replacement, or in the most serious cases replacing the entire engine!
Oh no! What can I do to prevent this?
There are a few engine wear protection additives from LIQUI MOLY that could help prevent or greatly reduce engine wear.
One of the best product from LIQUI MOLY for engine protection is known as LIQUI MOLY Cera Tec. It provides not only one layer of wear protection for your engine, but TWO! (physical and chemical)
How does LIQUI MOLY Cera Tec work?
LIQUI MOLY Cera Tec is an engine wear protection additive that contains micro ceramic solid lubricant to fill the low spots of metal surfaces and also chemical active agents to polish the rough surfaces of the metal parts, thus providing a double protection for your engine!
Watch the video below to know more about how LIQUI MOLY Cera Tec provides double wear protection for your engine!
How do I use it and how long will this product last in my engine?
The way to use this product is by simply adding it into the engine oil when changing the engine oil while the oil is still fresh to start protecting your engine!
After adding LIQUI MOLY Cera Tec into your engine, the protection lasts up to 50,000km!
One bottle of this product is suitable for a car with an engine oil capacity of up to 5 liters, which means you would need 2 bottles if you have a diesel car with more than 5 liters engine oil capacity.
Note: Remember to shake the product well before adding to your engine oil!
