This leads to difficult conditions for drivers, engines and engine oil. Today, even drivers with average mileage get up to 18,000 starts and stops per year**. This is annoying - and worse still, it will damage your engine slowly but permanently. The constant repetition of braking, idle and acceleration increases microscopic engine wear. Metal particles, which are rubbed off the surfaces of critical engine components, can thus become harmful wear particles. In an answer to this problem, we have developed Castrol MAGNATEC DUALOCK technology. Castrol MAGNATEC with DUALOCK technology reduces engine wear by a whole 50%*. For non-stop protection even when started. Castrol Magnatec: Non-stop protection with every start Traffic density has increased dramatically over the last decade. This annoys - worse still, it damages your engine slowly but permanently. Castrol MAGNATEC with DUALOCK technology has been specially developed for driving conditions in urban spaces. Castrol MAGNATEC DUALOCK technology is a world first. The molecules of the oil adhere to important engine components, connect and protect the engine from wear during the warm-up phase and during stop-and-go traffic. It creates an effective protective shield that reduces hot running wear and stop-and-go-related wear by 50%*. Castrol MAGNATEC Castrol DUALOCK technology is based on two types of molecules that protect the engine from hot running wear and stop-and-go-related wear. The molecules connect and together form a strong protective shield. * Tested against the API SN wear limit in sequence test IVA and the ACEA wear limit in OM646LA test. **Worldwide average cut from 50 cities, Castrol MAGNATEC STOP START INDEX 2014. Review: Parfait comme huile, le top (y) rapport qualité/prix excellent - J'ai effectué la vidange avec un nettoyant moteur pré-vidange acheté chez un revendeur de pièces automobiles. Puis j'ai remis un filtre à huile neuf ainsi que cette huile Castrol Magnatec. Le moteur est moins sonore et tourne parfaitement, régime moteur plus bas. Actuellement un rodage de 1000km en cours sans dépasser 2000-2800 trs/min et en respectant le temps de chauffe moteur. Vraiment un très bon produit, c'est ma deuxième vidange avec cette marque et compte renouveler ultérieurement. En grande surface, j'ai pu observer un écart de prix supérieur de 10€ Review: Erwartete Qualität von Castrol - Artikel schnell geliefert und Preis-Leistungsverhältnis stimmt. Motor läuft super und es passen genau 5 Liter rein. Qualität von Castrol. Kann man nichts falsch machen. ## Features - Contains maleic anhydride.
