PREVENTIVE CARE

Keep caring for a car that runs well.

XADO wear-protection treatments can be considered as part of routine care for suitable, mechanically serviceable systems. Choose the product for your engine or transmission and follow its instructions alongside your vehicle's maintenance schedule.

Protect working surfaces

Explore engine or transmission wear protection even when there is no noticeable symptom.

Clean at the right time

TotalFlush is an oil-system cleaner used before an oil and filter change, when cleaning is appropriate.

Use the right interval

Treatment cycles and repeat intervals vary. A long-term wear treatment is not automatically needed at every oil change.

Preventive care questions

What about electric and hybrid vehicles?

Electric and hybrid vehicles can have oil-lubricated gears. EX120 for gearboxes and reducers may be considered where the component uses compatible gear oil; confirm the exact unit, fluid and supplied instructions. ATF, e-drive fluids and shared motor-cooling circuits need separate compatibility checks. A hybrid also has a combustion engine: suitable XADO engine wear protection can be part of its maintenance. Select by the system being treated, not just the powertrain name.

Can I use XADO if my car has no symptoms?

Yes, suitable XADO wear-protection products have a preventive-care role. Check the exact vehicle, system, fluid specification and supplied label. For a new or rebuilt engine, also check running-in instructions and the vehicle manufacturer's requirements.

Should I add it before or after an oil change?

TotalFlush is used in the old engine oil before changing the oil and filter. Plan an AMC or EX120 wear treatment so its full treatment cycle can finish before the next oil change. Follow the instructions for your exact product; do not use one timing rule for every additive.

Do I need another treatment at every oil change?

Not automatically. Follow the repeat interval on your product label. XADO's AMC Maximum 225 ml reference instructions describe a 1,000–1,500 km treatment cycle and recommend repeat treatment after 100,000 km. Check that the supplied version matches those instructions. Continue normal vehicle servicing.

Can an additive replace servicing or mechanical repairs?

No. Keep using the specified oil and normal service schedule. Severe slipping, loss of drive, overheating or an oil-pressure warning needs diagnosis before treatment.

Product Selection by Problem Solving

Low or unequal compression in cylinders

Symptoms of compression decrease:

  • Difficult engine start

  • Unstable operation in all modes

  • One or several cylinders do not function

  • Popping sounds in the inlet and outlet manifold

  • Increased fuel consumption

  • Increased pressure in the cooling system connection

Reasons for low or unequal compression:

  1. Piston ring sticking, carbon deposits on the walls of the combustion chamber and on the piston top.

  2. Damaged cylinders' operating surface, or worn-out piston rings

  3. Improper adjustment of valves, or damage to the hydraulic lifters.

  4. Worn-out bushing guides, Valve Stem deformation.

  5. Burned valves or cylinder head gasket. Crack in the cylinder head, half or fully burned piston, destroyed piston rings.

Recommendations

  • If piston rings are coked or there are carbon deposits on combustion chamber wall - we recommend using Verylube Anticarbon fluid. Simply, you would need to spray it into engine cylinders through spark plug holes (for gasoline engines) or injector nozzles and glow plugs (for diesel engines) BEFORE CHANGING OIL.
    In order to prevent carbon build-up on piston rings and to effectively remove carbon deposits on inner surfaces of cylinders and valves - it is recommended to clean the engine oil system before each oil change by using XADO Atomex Total Flush – intensive oil system cleaner with Anti-Carbon Effect.
     

  • If there is minor damage to cylinder surface or if piston rings are not extremely worn-out - use XADO Revitalizant® EX120 for engine (Gasoline / Diesel) . You can apply Revitalizant® through spark plug holes (for gasoline engines) or injector nozzles and glow plugs (for diesel engines).
    If cylinders are heavily worn-out- use XADO Revitalizant® and make an oil change - use  XADO treatment to revitalize your engine (for gasoline engine or for diesel engine)
     

  • If low or unequal compression in cylinders resulted from improper valves configuration, or if hydraulic lifters are damaged, it is necessary to adjust the valves and replace worn or damaged hydraulic lifters.
     

  • If bushing guides or valve stem got deformed - it is recommended to repair the cylinder head, repair valve bushings, or replace damaged valves.

  • If valves or cylinder head gasket are burned or there is a crack in the cylinder head - complete overhaul of the engine need to be done.
