Liqui Moly Gear-Oil Additive (20 g)

ABOUT LIQUI MOLY: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx For those who don’t know, Liqui Moly GmbH is a German company specializing in oils, lubricants and additives. Liqui Moly GmbH was founded in 1957 in Ulm on the river Danube. The patent for production of molybdenum Disulphide formed the basis for the company. This additive based on liquefied molybdenum disulphide (MoS2) was the company's first product and gave the company its name “Liqui Moly”. When added to motor oil, this substance ensures emergency running characteristics in the event of a sudden loss of oil. Fighter pilots in World War One had already exploited this property, adding MoS2 to the motor oil in the aircraft engines. This enabled pilots to still land, even if the oil tank was hit. Liqui Moly's main product is motor oil with MoS2 but there are also other lubricants with MoS2 and the additive MoS2 itself to be added by the end user during oil changes. From this additive, an entire range was developed, with over 4000 products including engine and gear oils, additives and vehicle care products, workshop equipment and service products. In Germany, Liqui Moly is one of the leading producers of engine oils. Germany remains the main marketplace, but international demands are increasing. LIQUI MOLY products are now sold in 120 countries. Starting January 1, 2018, Liqui Moly is part of the Würth Group which bought the remaining shares of the previous majority holder and CEO Ernst Prost. To give an idea ,The operating revenue of the company was 532 million Euro as of February 2018. ABOUT THE GEAR OIL ADDITIVE: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Already impressed with the significant lowering of my engine clutter by merely using the liquid moly super diesel additive, I ordered multiple automotive products for my Skoda rapid 1.6 diesel to check out the first-hand experience of each of the product. So far my observations of the product has been : @ This additive in particular is designed to be added to the gear-box oil to achieve superior lubrication properties between moving components inside a gear box thus lowering the frictional component between them & increasing their life as a consequence. @ The product comes as a 20 gram small tube that has to be added to the new gear box oil – a tube for a liter. Thus for my skoda rapid for around 2.5 liters of gear oil , I decided to put in 2 tubes of the same. @ In general in some cars as in my skoda rapid, the gear box oil is sealed for life ie, there is no need to replace the same for any usable life time of the vehicle. However, after a recent sideways collision of my vehicle with an overtaking trawler, I could feel a depreciation of the initial smoothness while shifting gears & hence decided to replace it along with additive. In most others, gear oil is replaced any time after 40000 to 80000 kms for different car models. @ Since the product has to be added to the gearbox oil hence the type of fuel used in the vehicle is insignificant and it can be safely used in both diesel & petrol driven vehicles. @ The tube had an MRP tag of 713 bucks however I purchased it from amazon for 1062 bucks for 2 tubes or roughly the same as 531 for each piece including GST shipping etc. which is quite on the higher side. @ I have already been using certain liquid MoS2 compounds in my plant as an anti-sieze remedy for machine bolts hence I was pretty confident over the product. @ The product has everything over the tube written in german as its manufactured in Germany. @ The manufacturing date over the tube is of July 2017 however no expiry date is mentioned over the pack. @ I am yet to get it changed hence will update over its effect later with a sure-footing. However in theory I am sure liquid molybdenum is a great anti friction & anti-sieze compound.

Good product gaer shifting is smooth

Very good product. 2nd purchase in the last 5 years. Has definitely made gear shifts totally smooth.... So smooth that I can actually shift gears with just one finger. Using it in my Suzuki Ignis with manual transmission. Definitely recommend.

I add it to the gear oil and differential oils and it definitely smoothen….gear change is smoother and less clunky noise as 4x4 gears tend to do thật…

My car's first gear is very notchy and difficult to slot into at times. The liquimoly gear additive makes it about 50% better. The notchiness is still there but it's easy to live with now.

May be it works for old vehicle's and old gearboxes, but for new gear box it useless, it modifies the friction, synchronizers struggles to match the gear speed , 1st and 2nd gear got stiffness, up shifting is relatively easy , but downshifting feels notchy and stiff

It's a good additive if put in proper quantity. You need to add 1 pouch per liter of gear oil. So if your gear oil is 2liters then you need 2 pouches of additive. U will feel the difference once you drive about 50 kms.

very good made my ford ikon gear box much better than before as the gears were getting stuck 1 st and 2nd most made a quiet a difference

Ottimo prodotto e servizio!

Ordered 2 tubes for my car gearbox. She has noisy input bearing, I know it didn't fixed the bearing, I just bought some time and noisy is 80% down, worked like a charm for me so far, finger's crossed. P.S. smoother gear shifting too Love it.

Aucune incidence

Ich hab mir das Additive gekauft wegen der guten Rezensionen. Und ich muss sagen ich bin echt beeindruckt. Bei meinem A4 1.6 hatte das Getriebe immer gehakt obwohl erst vor 30000km das Öl und die Kupplung gewechselt wurden. (Zumindest laut Quittung vom Vorbesitzer) Ich habe jetzt das Getriebeöl getauscht und gemerkt das etwa 1l Öl zu wenig drinnen waren. Hab jetzt 2,3l Liqui Moly 75W-90 und 80g von dem Additive eingefüllt. Und siehe da nach ca. 500km hauptsächlich Autobahn lässt sich das Getriebe Butterweich schalten und ist wesentlich leiser geworden. Ebenfalls hab ich die Bremsflüssigkeit an der das Kupplungssystem mit dran hängt auch getauscht.(War schon 4Jahre drin) Fakt ist das er sich viel besser fahren lässt. Kann ich nur weiter empfehlen. Kaufe ich wieder.

Despues de leer mucho sobre aditivos me decidí por este de liqui molly, decir que no es instantanea la mejoría nada mas meterlo a la caja, que se tarda alrededor de 100 - 150km en notar realmente la diferencia, pero una vez que ruedas esos kilometros es cuando empiezas a darte cuenta que los cambios que antes estaban algo duros ahora entran muchísimo mas suave. Voleré a pedir este producto seguro
