From its fellow with viscosity 10W40, this specimen differs, first of all, by its formula — it is based solely on the mineral base. Motor oil MoS2 15W40 Liqui Moly belongs to the class of all-season, is made from high-quality mineral oils with a set of special additives, among which, as well as a polysynthetic sample, there is molybdenum disulfide. This powerful formula provides great lubricant to engine parts in a wide range of revs, while providing longer time between lubricant replacements.
