Optimum protection of commercial vehicles against repairs and breakdowns

#Commercial Vehicle

10 known problems that you can solve quickly and easily with additives.

As the service life of a commercial vehicle increases, wear and tear increases, which can lead to unpleasant problems. To prevent this and avoid high repair costs or even breakdowns, we offer a variety of problem solvers for the professional commercial vehicle sector. This means that your commercial vehicle is optimally protected at all times and existing problems can also be reliably and quickly resolved. Here are 10 additives you should know about.

Higher oil consumption

This is usually due to piston rings seizing up as a result of deposits, which leads to a loss of compression in the engine. Contamination in the oil circuit, especially in turbo ducts, can also lead to turbo damage.

The solution to the problem: Pro-Line Engine Flush. The additive cleans the engine from the inside and eliminates existing problems immediately. Stubborn deposits on the piston rings and in the oil system are removed and flushed out with the used oil during the oil change. This allows your vehicle to return to its full performance again with fresh engine oil.

Diesel bacteria and diesel bug

If a commercial vehicle is only used seasonally or rarely, there should still be a guarantee that it will continue to function without any problems even after it has been parked up for a while. However, long downtimes pose the risk of diesel bacteria forming in the vehicle's tank. This can be triggered by an excessive water content in the fuel, excessive air humidity or condensation forming around the tank. The mold and bacteria settle on the diesel filter and clog it.

If the diesel filter is clogged, you can expect a loss of performance or malfunction of the engine, resulting in serious damage. This is usually noticeable through smoke development or engine jolting.

If you want to protect your commercial vehicle effectively and optimally despite infrequent use, Anti-Bacterial Diesel Additive is recommended. It contains a highly effective biocide with a broad spectrum of action against mold and bacteria. This means that diesel systems that are already contaminated can be easily sterilized with the additive and systems that are not yet contaminated can be protected in advance.

High engine temperature

Over time, deposits form in the cooling and heating system. These form barriers for heat exchange and block thermostatic valves and regulation mechanisms. This can also result in oil sludge in the cooling water. This leads to high engine temperatures, which promotes wear and damage.

With the Pro-Line Radiator Cleaner, you can reliably remove oil and lime deposits from the cooling system of your commercial vehicle and guarantee the reliable cooling function of the engine. As a result, the additive ensures an optimal engine temperature and reliable operating safety. This avoids expensive damage, costly repairs and annoying downtimes.

Coolant loss

Commercial vehicles usually spend many hours on the road, on construction sites or on uneven terrain. Stone chipping can occur quickly on the radiator or porous solder joints can break open. These small leaks are often difficult to locate and are usually only detected by the falling coolant level.

Pro-Line Radiator Stop Leak K seals such leaks immediately, effectively and sustainably after addition. There are special polymers in the additive that do this. Of course, the additive can also be added preventively. It is compatible with all commercially available antifreezes and coolant refiners.
