About Liqui Moly

All LIQUI MOLY products are created by close solidarity with the automotive, two-wheel and commercial vehicle industry. That's why Liqui Moly solutions are always on par with state-of-the-art technologies and sometimes even a good distance ahead. The recipes for LIQUI MOLY high-tech products are largely based on our own developments, that we continuously test and develop. The LIQUI MOLY full range, with more than 4,000 products, offers you lubricants, additives, car care products and chemical repair tools with integrated use guarantee.

LIQUI MOLY offers the matching motor oil for every vehicle in the world. Liqui Moly engine oils have a variety of approvals by German and overseas car manufacturers or fulfill the requirements of the producers. And, even here, there are still differences: A manufacturer approval means that the oil fulfills certain minimum requirements. But LIQUI MOLY goes beyond those requirements and develop oils that, for example, have a higher cleaning performance than what is required by the manufacturer.

Every mile driven costs a tiny bit of engine longevity. The reason: Friction and wear. A creeping process, that is often accelerated by poor fuel quality and deposits of old lubricants. However, regular maintenance of the oil and fuel circuit can usually restore engine performance to its original level. Without much effort, but with a great deal of effect. When it comes to gear oil a similar thing can be said.

The fact that LIQUI MOLY products shine, and, with a high level of innovation, deliver what they promise, is confirmed again and again by independent testing institutions, in which we regularly pass with flying colors. Approvals by the automotive industry and the fulfilling of the highest specifications are also a matter of course.

Actually works
I have a 2003 e320. I started to have hard shifts, hesitation, lashing and slipping that only gotten worse over past month. I know these trans have the 722.6 valve body which are known for these issues and something like trans go shift kit may fix it. That is if thats what's wrong. Not wanting to drop the valve body, change fluid again and replace components of valve body since I just did conductor plate some months back, I decided to give this a shot. To my surprise after just 20 miles It stopped banging gears. After an hour of driving I noticed the hesitation was alot less and didn't notice any lashing. Fast forward a week and all the issues I had are gone except the occasional slipping of second which is minor. My guess is clutch material block something up in the valve body and this cleared it restoring the trans to how it was before everything started. That comes to mind only because everything happened over a very sort period of time. Regardless whatever was the cause this stuff fixed it.

Seems to have stopped hard 1st to 2nd shifts
Tried this on my 2002 BMW 530i (e39) with an automatic transmission. After a botched fluid change (I take full responsibility) my trans would just not shift well, especially when cold; hard acceleration from first to second and lesser from second to third were sometimes brutally rough and there was a vibration through the car while idling at times. Removing fluid and replacing with Liqi-Moly brand helped some. Last week I added a 250ml tube of Liqi-Moli ATF additive and the problem went away immediately. I mean gone. Those of you with older BMWs know what's next: the fact that I'm boasting of this cure means something else will go wrong. Any. Moment. Now. I'll update if anything changes. And FCP Euro, as usual, was great. I live in Maryland and the economy shipping always arrives within three days.

Liqui Moly ATF additive
Worked exactly as described. Added to the transmission fluid during the flush and fill and the transmission is no longer shifting hard.

Questions & Answers

Question Posted by Jesse
Is this compatible with a 2007 mini cooper s with the N14 and an automatic transmission?
Answer (Posted by FCP Euro Products Team)
Your 2007 R56 Cooper S automatic uses the Aisin GA6F21WA, which requires JWS 3309 ATF. Liqui Moly specifies additive 20040 only for transmissions using Dexron II/III-based fluids, so we would not use it here; for service fluid, we carry Aisin ATF-0T4 (FCP PN ATF-0T4), which meets JWS 3309.
Question Posted by Dasler

Question Posted by a customer
Can I use this on my automatic 1992 mercedes 190E?
Answer (Posted by FCP Euro Products Team)
Yes, this is compatible with older Dex 2/3/4H/Mercon fluids which your 92 190E would use.
Question Posted by a customer
How much of this product should be added to the steering reservoir in a 2011 Volvo S80 3.2? Thanks!
Answer (Posted by FCP Euro Products Team)
This should not be used in a system containing CHF11S or CHF202, which your model should use for power steering fluid.
Question Posted by a customer
is this suitable for Aisin transmission on 2010 Land Rover LR2 currently I run JWS3309 transmission fluid. thanks you! Todd
Answer (Posted by FCP Euro Products Team)
LM lists this as "For all automatic transmissions that are filled with Dexron II and Dexron III based fluids", which JWS3309 is not and is not compatible with so I would not recommend this be used with that fluid.
Question Posted by Christian
Will this work for a BMW 2014 X6 as a power steering additive? Or would the Genuine BMW LUBRIZOL 6 work better? The steering system is pretty stiff even after a flush, so what would be the best fluid to improve it? Thank you
Answer (Posted by FCP Euro Products Team)
Either are great choices.
Question Posted by Alex
Hi, what additive available/ you can recomend for 2016 Audi Q5 (no stick, no intake) wonder if it possible only during filter / trans fluid change
Answer (Posted by FCP Euro Products Team)
None that I would recommend no, for that transmission I would use factory OE fluid from ZF (Lifeguard 8) and stay on top of filter and fluid changes with a kit like the below. https://www.fcpeuro.com/products/audi-dsg-transmission-service-kit-zf-0bk398009kt
Question Posted by Alex
