Benefits for consumers


Cleaner Pistons

OM 441 test evaluates performance of lubricants to prevent bore polishing, piston and turbocharger deposits in Euro II engines. At the end of the test pistons are rated by a professional rater who grades the level of deposits on the piston.

Cleaner pistons

Corrosion Protection

OM602A test evaluates the performance of the lubricant in preventing cam wear, bore polishing and sludge formation under severe operating conditions. When deposits build up on the pistons this can result in stuck rings. This results in bore polish which is measured in this test.

Protects Even at Low Temperatures

The pour point test is an industry standard analytical test used to measure the lowest temperature at which a lubricant will flow. If oil flows at very low temperatures in the lab, the oil should protect the engine better at start up in cold conditions in the engine. This means the oil will reach engine components quicker and protect them from wear at start up.
