Product Information
Full details
The Motul Valve Lifter Stop Noise Additive (300ml) is for car owners experiencing hydraulic lifter rattle in their petrol or diesel engines. Its key benefit is eliminating lifter noise and restoring smooth engine operation. A potential caveat is that it addresses noise, not underlying mechanical damage. This additive works by enhancing lubrication and improving oil pressure to quiet noisy hydraulic lifters, offering a non-invasive solution for common engine sounds.

FAQs
How often should I use this additive?
It is recommended to use the Motul Valve Lifter Stop Noise Additive during routine oil changes, or whenever noticeable hydraulic lifter noise occurs.
Can I use this additive in a new engine?
While designed for noise reduction, it's generally best to follow the manufacturer's recommendations for new engines. This additive is most beneficial for engines where lifter noise has already developed.
Will this additive harm my engine?
When used as directed, this additive is formulated to be safe for all types of gasoline and diesel engines and their components. It does not contain harsh chemicals that would damage seals or other parts.
What is the difference between this and a full oil change?
This additive is a supplementary product designed to target specific noise issues. A full oil change replaces the old, potentially degraded oil with fresh lubricant, which is essential for overall engine health and lubrication.
Can I mix this additive with other oil additives?
It is generally not recommended to mix multiple oil additives unless specifically stated as compatible. Using this additive alone or with standard engine oil is advised.
How long does it take to notice the effects?
The effects can typically be noticed within a few hundred miles of driving after application, as the additive circulates through the engine and works on the hydraulic lifters.
Troubleshooting
Lifter noise persists after adding the product.
Allow additional time for the additive to circulate through the engine (e.g., 200-300 miles). If the noise is severe or does not diminish, it may indicate mechanical damage to the lifters that the additive cannot repair. Consult a qualified mechanic.
Engine performance seems reduced after application.
Ensure the correct amount of additive was used and that it was mixed with the appropriate engine oil. Verify no other maintenance issues are present. If problems persist, consider flushing the oil system and refilling with fresh oil and filter, then re-evaluate.
Additive spilled during application.
Clean up any spills immediately with an absorbent cloth. Avoid contact with painted surfaces, as some additives can damage finishes. Dispose of waste properly according to local regulations.
