Technical characteristics speak of excellent quality and coordinated work with the motor. Testing this lubricant mixture in our climatic conditions has demonstrated that it is one of the the best options... If you are a novice car enthusiast, then feel free to choose this oil and you will not go wrong. The abbreviation 5w40 means that this fluid is suitable for use equally both in summer and winter.

The range of products manufactured by Liqui Moly is huge, but let's dwell on the technical characteristics of two samples, which have recently been gaining more and more popularity. These are Liqui Moly 5w40 Optimal and Liqui Moly 5w40 Molygen.

Liqui Moly Optimal Synthetics is a motor lubricant that is distinguished by its easy flow properties and a perfectly matched set of unique additives. It can be used not only in gasoline, but also in diesel engines, which, in their design, provide for turbocharging and a cooling system for forced air. Meets the highest requirements for engine lubricants. It can withstand even the heaviest loads.

Of the main characteristics of Liquid Moli 5w40 Optimal motor lubricant, first of all, it should be noted:

1. Quieter and easier engine operation.
2. High lubricating properties.
3. Has excellent scuff resistance.
4. Prolongs engine performance.
5. Prevention of carbon deposits and various deposits in the engine.
6. Instant oil film formation when low temperaturesoh.
7. Reduces fuel consumption due to reduced friction.
8. Reduces the content of harmful substances in exhaust gases.

Liqui Moly 5w40 Molygen oil is distinguished by the presence of a special component - moligen, which, together with special additives, significantly reduces the load on the engine during cold start. In addition, this type of fluid has the highest stability, guarantees high operating efficiency even under the most unfavorable temperature conditions for car operation. The oil components are highly resistant to oxidation, which, in turn, significantly prolongs the time between lubricant changes. In the case of conventional oils, replacement is recommended every 20 thousand kilometers, and in case of high loads - every 10 thousand kilometers. If used, this interval can be increased to 40 thousand kilometers.

Reliable protection against premature wear of engine components is guaranteed due to the low deposit formation rate. This is the main factor in the malfunction of the motors. This lubricating mixture can be used in all engines, including those with turbines and diesel engines.

Advantages and disadvantages

Liquid Moli 5W40 engine oil has proven itself in the world market of automotive fluids only from the good side. Thanks to the non-standard approach of developers to the production of oil fluid, they managed to create products that allow not only to increase the resource of the engine compartment, save fuel and achieve effective cleaning engine compartmentbut also allow car owners to save savings on the fuel mixture.

There are only two disadvantages of Liqui Moly 5w40 oil: high price, which is compensated by a guaranteed improvement in the performance of the power plant, and a large number of counterfeit.

What does the marking mean?

According to the international SAE standard, 5w40 liquid moth oil belongs to the category of all-weather technical fluids... Product labeling consists of three designations:

• the first number 5 indicates in which low-temperature conditions the material will retain its viscous properties and provide an easy engine start. In our case, 5w40 fully performs its functions down to -35 degrees Celsius.
• the letter W indicates the winter suitability of the oil.
• the second digit 40 informs the user about the acceptable high temperature limit (40 degrees Celsius).

Thus, the use of a protective lubricant with such markings preserves the performance of the vehicle's power plant even in the most severe climatic regions of the country.

How to distinguish a fake?

Before making a purchase in a particular store in your city, carefully inspect the oil container. Because Liquid Moli has enviable popularity and high demand among motorists, and the viscosity of 5w40 is the most popular, then before buying you need to make sure that you have the original in your hands.

How to do it? Pay attention to the main elements of the canister:

1. cover. The original cover must be black. There should be no traces of opening, cracks or other defects on it. The retaining ring under the cover must not be touched. Otherwise, it is a “symptom” of counterfeiting. Malefactors pour low-quality mixture into canisters of world brands and sell them “as real”.
2. plastic container. Saying that Liquid Moli plastic has high quality it is impossible - traces of adhesion will be visible at the bottom of the canister; however, the front and back must be free from defects or seams. The original plastic itself does not have a specific "Chinese" smell. By the way, on the back of the canister, the date of manufacture of the product and its batch number should be printed with a laser.
3. label. Unfortunately, Liquid Moli does not provide mirror holograms and original logos. However, the condition of its label can be used to determine the authenticity of the product. If the paper has traces of plywood, its inscriptions and drawings do not have clear boundaries, and it itself is in doubt, then you are holding a fake in your hands. By the way, if the design of the canister has a suspicious style, go to the official website of the company and compare the store copy with the company's catalog.

You will be able to protect yourself from poor-quality lubricating fluid by carefully examining the purchased product.

The German chemical concern Liqui Moly began operations 60 years ago with just one product: a protective additive based on molybdenum dioxide.

It was a special fluid that, thanks to molybdenum molecules, protected the engine parts during oil starvation. Actually, even the name of the enterprise is translated as “molybdenum liquid”.

Developing this topic, the engineers introduced new technical consumables containing the same additive into the assortment. As a result, any engine oils of Liquid Moli 5W40, or other viscosity, necessarily contain molybdenum.

This does not mean that all formulations are the same: the German concern offers a whole series of products with unique properties and applicability to different types motors.

What unites the line of Liqui Molly 5W 40 oils?

First of all, SAE viscosity indicators.


Letter W means that the lubricant belongs to the winter class. This does not mean that you need to change the oil in the warm season.

But at low temperatures, the basic physical properties are provided, on which the "health" of the motor depends:

• oversteer cardan shaft no extra effort at low temperatures: -25 ° C;
• the pumpability of Liquid Moli 5W40 motor oil through the oil pipelines does not deteriorate up to a temperature of -35 ° C. The range of applicability without loss of basic parameters is guaranteed in the range from -25 ° C to + 35 ° C
• Another special feature: all Liquid Moli 5w40 oils are produced with molybdenum.

The additive "molybdenum disulfide" is a highly effective friction modifier. Evenly distributed over the working surface of the metal, it creates a layer that reduces the load on the parts when they come into contact.

This reduces wear and the mechanical cost of overcoming drag.

What is the secret of Liquid Molly 5W40 molybdenum oil additive?

Molybdenum disulfide is a powder that is not soluble in liquids. If it is added to oil, it will be suspended.

A molybdenum additive smoothes unevenness, giving the oil the opportunity to fully realize antifriction properties.


As a result, the contact point of the rubbing parts is separated by a protective layer. The temperature of the parts is reduced, scuffing is prevented.

Another unifying factor is compatibility with the motors of most car models. Almost all manufacturers of equipment on wheels, after thorough testing, have issued approvals and certificates to Liqui Moly oils.

Any Liquid Moli 5W40 oil is synthetic. However, for a demanding consumer, you should know the nuances. Concern Liqui Moly produces two types of base base, which, according to modern sAE classification can be called synthetic:

1. A universal processing method based on hydrocracking synthesis technology (HC). If you ignore the unified standard created by marketers, this is a common mineral oil high purity. But the technology is so perfect that the quality of the HC base practically does not differ from 100% of the synthesis product. This is confirmed by the reviews about HC Liquid Moli 5W40 oil.
2. 100% synthetic base based on polyalphaolefins (PAO). Such oil is synthesized from natural gas, while the molecular lattice is programmed by the developers in accordance with terms of reference... That is, the properties of the product are set even at the stage of creating the base, and the additives simply bring the Liquid Moli 5W40 motor oil to perfection.

Liquid Moli oil 5W40 synthetics - reviews

Customer reviews also combine the line of oils with molybdenum. Almost everyone notes an improvement in the condition of the engine.

Of course, the main characteristics do not change, but you can list the following benefits that are not determined in laboratories:

• the operation of the motor becomes quieter, there are no harsh sounds;
• reduction in mechanical losses leads to improved efficiency;
• there are no jerks when starting and stopping the engine, this is especially evident in the "start-stop" mode;
• due to the forming nano-coating, powder is practically not erased from the metal surface: the oil remains relatively transparent throughout the entire period of use.
