Title: LIQUI MOLY Cera Tec worth putting in with oil change?
Post by: Sal777 on January 21, 2021, 05:14:18 pm

Hi guys

I was reading into LIQUI MOLY Cera Tec and checked some reviews out seems like its good stuff!

Has anyone else put this into their engine? seen any changes?

I used it my old VR6 engines and back in the day, it was popular with 1.8T engines to slow down oil pump chain wear.  It was good in those engines although you can't really 'feel' the difference to be honest.

It might be useful in TFSI engines to slow down HPFP follower wear, but I haven't used it personally.  I just use a good oil  :happy2:

Most of the TFSI's running issues can be attributed to worn/partially clogged injectors.  We have recently found a good LiquiMoly product that helps with that, which is their 'Injection Cleaner'.  It's worked wonders on my clogged injectors  :happy2:
