Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

5 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hey all I am in the belief that all (or most) oil additives are just snake oil, but i received this email from ECS today that has my curiosity peaked it claims to be a ceramic coating for the inside of the motor made by LiquiMoly what say ye? more of the same old snake oil??maybe a cure for bore scoring?????excerpt from email below Step 2 - Cera Tec - Add in with your New Engine Oil Cera Tec is a high quality ceramic wear protection product which is safe for use in all engine oils. It reduces friction and wear due to ceramic compounds that withstand extremely high chemical and thermal loads. Cera Tec reduces direct metal-to-metal contact, thus increasing the engine service life. The low-friction effect reduces fuel consumption in gasoline and diesel engines. The chemicals in this specially-formulated product adhere to metal surfaces to reduce internal wear and friction, giving you peace-of-mind and saving you costly repairs in the future. Treats up to 5 liters of engine oil and provides up to 30,000 miles of protection under normal driving conditions. *Note: Not suitable for use with wet clutch applications or limited slip differentials. Great for use in vehicles with high pressure, cam-driven fuel pumps or engines making noise upon start-up. *** Not to be used with Liqui Moly Molygen Engine Oil - Molygen already includes friction modifiers This Part Fits the Following Vehicles Audi All BMW All Mercedes Benz All MINI All Porsche All Volkswagen All *The above product applications have been written by ECS Tuning.

I prefer a high quality used French Fry oil from Burger King only - no McDonalds. It costs a little more, but these are Porsche's we're talking about - they're worth the extra $
