Customer Benefits
Extended oil drain intervals
- Special frictional properties significantly lower transmission running temperatures for cooler operation and less heat stress on the oil. Thermally stable EP system provides improved protection against pitting and wear, enabling extended drain capability compared with more conventional technology oils.
Long transmission life
- Thermally stable EP system limits corrosion of copper-containing bearings and bushings and provides improved steel pitting protection under severe conditions. The EP system also provides very good anti-wear protection for transmission gear components.
Enhanced synchronizer performance
- Special frictional characteristics provide optimum transmission synchronizer performance and shift feel in European vehicles
