Although passenger cars with diesel engines are still a niche market, it is a rapidly growing niche. Here workshops can open up new fields of business and enjoy attractive additional turnover. At AAPEX, the largest annual exhibition for the automotive aftermarket, Liqui Moly will present innovations for servicing diesel cars.
This includes DPF Protector, which is now being introduced in North America. This fuel additive protects diesel particulate filters from clogging up prematurely. This happens particularly when cars are used for frequent short trips. The filter does not reach the temperature required to start automatic regeneration and thus convert the soot in the filter to ash. This soot then clogs the filter, and, with a clogged filter, the car no longer runs. Liqui Moly DPF Protector reduces the minimum temperature the filter requires for automatic regeneration by more than 200°F. This allows the filter to regenerate even during short trips and remain free. Simply pour DPF Protector into the fuel tank.
If the filter is already clogged, Liqui Moly's Diesel Particulate Filter Cleaner can help. With it, workshops can free up the filter quickly, simply and effectively. This process only requires putting the car on the lift; it is not even necessary to remove the filter. The entire cleaning procedure requires only 30 to 60 minutes. At the last AAPEX, LIQUI MOLY's Diesel Particulate Filter Cleaner received AIA's award for the "Best New Product for Import Cars".
In addition Liqui Moly will also introduce a new series of motor oils at the AAPEX. Our Top Tec 4700 carries the new Mercedes Approval MB 229.52, which is prescribed for V6 Bluetec engines, such as those installed in M, S, G and E Models. Liqui Moly Special Tec V 0W-30 was developed especially for Volvos. And Liqui Moly Special Tec F Eco is for the Eco-Boost engines from Ford, because engine downsizing places particularly great challenges on the motor oil.
The two wear protection additives Cera Tec and Motor Protect contain the new formula offering even higher performance. Not only does this offer better protection for the engine, it also increases the fuel economy.
Liqui Moly's focal points are motor oils and additives, but the company also offers a variety of products in the range of automotive chemistry. This includes car care products, which Liqui Moly is now introducing in North America. As all Liqui Moly products, they are produced exclusively in Germany.
