Seals in motor vehicles – versatile and indispensable Engine gaskets are important technical components made of a wide variety of material compositions. Sealing components prevent the loss of fluids and make an important contribution to seal-free operation and constant lubrication in the engine or gearbox. They are used in combustion engines or in aggregates. Leakages […]
Reduced fuel consumption via engine technology and engine oil In order to keep fuel consumption as low as possible, the automotive industry has developed more fuel-efficient engines in recent years. This lead downsized engines to have a smaller displacement, but comparable performance. However, viscous dissipation in the combustion engine causes energy loss. And this leads […]
Transmission fluid change – When is it important? Especially older vehicles with a high mileage often need a change of the outdated transmission fluid. The reliable lubricating film protection is only effective for a limited time and deteriorates over the years. And it is of central importance for the long-term functional safety of the transmission […]
Observe manufacturer’s instructions for your coolant! A functioning cooling system in the engine is, among other things, an essential guarantee for low-wear operation of the engine. The engine cooling must be able to cool extreme heat downs, which is generated during ignition of the fuel-air mixture. Without cooling, the tolerance ranges of the engine components […]
High standards for the motor oil and automotive industry The environmental pressure on the automotive industry continues to grow: the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) have issued the Safer Affordable Fuel-Efficient Vehicles Rule (SAFE) in the USA, where less CO2 emissions and more fuel savings are among the […]
BIZOL Additives – from standard to excellence A high VI means that synthetic oil retains its viscosity when exceptional hot or cold. Synthetic oil generally has a lower pour point, therefor needs lower levels of pour point depressants than conventional oils which have high levels of waxes that solidify at low temperatures. The lower level […]
What happens if fuel injectors are dirty? A frequently underestimated problem that many mechanics are certainly familiar with is deposits on and in the injectors. Causes for the deposits are often a low fuel quality or missed maintenance intervals of the customers. Particularly in diesel-powered vehicles, deposits on the injectors are noticeable through an unbalanced […]
Changed hydraulic oil? One of the most important systems in a car is the steering system, and deserves special attention in terms of maintenance. It is not exempt from maintenance and especially its hydraulic oil should be changed at regular intervals. Normally the life span of hydraulic oils corresponds to the life span of the […]
W-guard™ technology reduces the frictional resistance BIZOL Friction Modifier+ o94 is a high quality, powerful anti-friction and anti-wear engine oil additive with advanced W-guard™ technology. It effectively reduces the frictional resistance with the help of W-guard™ technology. Reduced fuel consumption and CO2 emissions The improved lubricating properties ensure more efficient power transmission, reduced fuel consumption […]
Use engine cleaner before changing oil Deposits are hardly avoidable by-products of fuel combustion in the engine. In addition to generally undesirable effects such as clogged oil channels and reduced protective oil properties, deposits on the surfaces of the intake or exhaust valves or on the piston rings can even reduce engine compression. This is […]
