Been thru, done it. Will advise you not to. Torco are only good in their SR series.
yes and no really.
from a personal experience, TR-5 beats liqui moly when it comes to high revving.
the drawbacks however is rougher engine on the low/mid rpm and its additive doesn't seem to last beyond 6-7k km. (my sentra OCI's at 7-8k km because lol women)
atm the sentra is on torco SR due to some "accidents", and i have to say, really f***ing good performance ROFL
hi i am a new owner of proton persona, need to change oil already, but dunno how to get around this, anyone can help me? i saw a sticker saying call this number for change
used car or new? if new consider going back to sc for warranty
nice... cause i am using 5w30 synthethic plus.. iinm, it's above semi syn, but below fully syn.. 1 litre around RM60... i feel nice with tat.. but then looking forward for a better one if have... tat's why i am asking for opinion how abt torco? tr5? sr1?
rm60/l? torco SR-1 la dei lol. same price, however 100% fully synthetic API SN GF-5 ILSAC Designation + resource conserving for the xw20 http://eolcs.api.org/brandSearchResults.aspx
can read up some of my personal review via the engine oil review thread (not pinned) in this very sub-forum
MoS2 LOW FRICTION MoS2 (molybdenum disulfide) forms a thin layer of high load-bearing lubricant on surfaces exposed to friction and on sliding parts in the engine. The excellent low friction properties of this material lead to lighter engine running, thus inhibiting wear and preventing breakdowns. Results from scientific tests have shown that MoS2 reduces fuel and oil consumption and leads to significantly less wear in the engine. MoS2 Low Friction is available from LIQUI MOLY as an oil additive (added to the motor oil) or as a ready-prepared MoS2 low friction motor oil. In spite of all efforts to polish the surface of the metals mechanically, they still look rough under the microscope (1). This rough ness is made smooth by applying a film of MoS2 lubricant (2) and this ”surface finish” reduces frictional resistance and decreases wear.
Do you know why Liqui Moly does not want to add "moly" to other range of products, especially on those higher standard fully synthetic? Could you please check with your principle and enlighten us? thanks.
no idea, it's best if you mail them directly
ps: i don't sell LM so there's no "principle" so to speak for me.
Maybe I will send email to Liqui Moly and hopefully I will get some answers.
I know the pros and cons of MoS2 and want to know Liqui Moly's stand on adding MoS2 on their products...
PS, thanks for sharing my post
np bro.
my PERSONAL opinion is that the ceramic particles may breakdown if left in the car/EO too long (also not suitable for extended OCI), hence the other lineups, they'd rather not have it premixed and let the consumers decide themselves (via means of oil additive or the better ceratec)
You were saying the ceramic and MoS2 will break down if left for long in the engine oil, so it is good to sell engine oil and additive separately?
here's what i said:

please don't put words in my mouth yea
whether it actually breaks down or not is unknown. what IS known, is that it can EASILY go 7-9k km without degradation of the engine oil AND performance.
and it is in MY opinion solely on how LM is selling their products and it may or may not be the actually be as i said.
