Lubegard 30901 Bio/Tech Engine Oil Protectant, 15 oz.

Description

LUBEGARD ENGINE OIL PROTECTANT contains Liquid Wax Ester (LXE) Technology, the lubrication system of the future. Specifically formulated to minimize friction and wear, also to keep the oil cooler in today’s more complicated engines. All modern engine oils contain a highly refined petroleum or synthetic base oil which is fortified with additives to meet motor oil performance specifications. Even so, dated specifications may not represent the level of performance needed by a new engine design. A new oil may not contain sufficient additives such as ANTI-WEAR agents or ANTI-CORROSION compounds even though it passes all the tests. Furthermore, these protective compounds are depleted when the oil is in service. The solution to this protection gap is LUBEGARD ENGINE OIL PROTECTANT which supplements and enhances the effectiveness of the additive system already present in the oil. LUBEGARD replaces the depleted or insufficient additives and adds LXE wear protectors and friction reducers which are unavailable in any oil. Minimum friction means maximum mileage; minimum wear means maximum service. Blends with ALL motor oils currently produced, including API; SJ, SJ/EC, CG- 4, CH-4, SE, SF, SG, SI, CC, CD, CE, SL, SD, SM and CF motor oils. Helps reduce smoking by restoring flexibility to valve stem seals for improved sealing, also providing outstanding upper cylinder lubricity as it frees up sticking rings. In addition, LUBEGARD increases the thermal and oxidative stability of motor oil to prevent creation of sludge and deposits. There is a need for improved oil additives for protection and mileage in view of the rapid technological changes in modern engine design. LUBEGARD provides a concentrated package that fulfills these deficiencies (without adding ZDDP, Chlorine, inappropriate sludge building additives like PTFE or solid lubricants such as Teflon, graphite or molybdenum disulphide.) LUBEGARD with LXE Technology will carry your engine through to the future! Also use to extend the life of small 4 cycle engines such as; lawn maintenance equipment, motorcycles, snow mobiles, etc. Review: Wundermittel? - Das kann ich nicht beurteilen, aber was zu erkennen ist, dass mein Auto mit Autogasanlage beim erstmaligen Kaltstart nach einer Autogasfahrt auf Benzin immer ausging, wenn man nicht sofort auf das Gaspedal gedrückt hat. Dies ist nun Vergangenheit, der Motor geht kurz mit der Drehzahl herunter und fängt sich ohne nochmals angelassen werden zu müssen. Einen Verbrauchsvorteil kann ich nicht wirklich nachweisen, wenn dann reden wir von max. 0.1 l, da hatte ich mir mehr versprochen nach dem enthusiastischen Bericht der Schweizer Tester. Review: Lubegard Bio/Tech Engine Oil Protectant may have saved the day! - I have been a user of Lubegard Red transmission additive for many years, so I decided to try the Bio/Tech Engine Oil Protectant for the first time. I added it to the engine in my wife's 2011 Toyota Sienna when I did a recent oil change at 100k miles. This van has the 3.5L 2GR-FE V6, and I've done 10k mile oil changes using 0w-20 full synthetic since new. The engine has always been reliable and uses no oil between changes. About 1,000 miles after this oil change my wife pulled into the driveway and I see a long trail of motor oil being left on the pavement behind her. I check the oil and there is nothing showing on the dipstick. My wife claimed that the oil pressure warning light never came on and that the engine sounded normal. I crawled underneath and determined that a rubber hose between the engine and the oil cooler had developed a pinhole leak which had coated the entire undercarriage with motor oil. I had the van towed to a Toyota dealer and they said that this is a fairly common problem with the 2GR-FE of that era, and that Toyota had updated the part with steel hard lines. This hose repair was completely covered by an extended warranty on that part with no cost to me. The best part is that the engine seems to have survived the oil leak unscathed. I don't know how much motor oil was still left in the engine, but there was a lot of it on the ground. The engine runs and sounds exactly the same as before. Now I can't say for sure that using the Lubegard additive prevented a tragedy in this case, but I do believe that it helped to keep the engine protected during this oil loss problem. I will continue using this Lubegard product in all of my engines from now on for the peace of mind that it brings. Update 05/01/23: I just did the 130k mile oil change on this van and the engine is still running great! Of course, I put in the Lubegard Bio/Tech additive like always. It is a great product and I now use it in all of my engines. I've found that it is cheapest on desertcart in the 32-ounce size and have been buying that recently. Update 08/12/24: The Sienna recently had another oil change at 150k miles and everything is still just fine. The engine runs smoothly and uses no oil between 10k changes. I'm continuing to use the Bio/Tech even though the price has increased (like everything else). By doing my own oil changes I save enough to offset spending more for such a great product. Update 04/08/26: I just completed the 170k mile oil change (still 10k intervals) and everything is perfect. This 3.5L V6 is an amazing engine and still runs like new. It doesn't use any oil between changes and doesn't leak any oil either. I'm still using the Lubegard additive and have just purchased some more. It's nice to see that the price has come down somewhat. I really wish Toyota still offered this V6 engine in their new vehicles. Our 2024 Grand Highlander has the 2.4L four-cylinder turbo, which has adequate power, but it's not in the same league as the 2GR-FE as far as being smooth and quiet. Folks, the bottom line is I still highly recommend the Lubegard Bio/Tech because it is a fantastic product!! Thanks for reading.
