Product Information

Full details

The Motul Catalytic Converter Cleaner is a cleaning additive for all types of gasoline engine catalytic converters, including oxidation catalysts and Three-Way Catalytic Converters (TWC). It is designed for car owners experiencing reduced engine performance, rough idling, or check engine lights related to catalytic converter efficiency. Its key benefit is dissolving carbon deposits from oxygen sensors and catalytic converter honeycombs, restoring optimal engine performance and reducing emissions. A potential caveat is that it's a preventative or curative treatment, not a substitute for mechanical repairs if underlying issues exist.

FAQs

What types of vehicles can use Motul Catalytic Converter Cleaner?

This cleaner is suitable for all gasoline engines equipped with oxidation catalysts and Three-Way Catalytic Converters (TWC). It is not intended for diesel engines.

How often should I use this product for maintenance?

For regular preventative maintenance, it is recommended to use one 300ml bottle for every 40-50 liters of gasoline every 5,000 km.

Can I use more than one bottle at a time for faster results?

No, do not exceed the recommended dosage. Using more than the specified amount will not provide faster results and could potentially cause issues.

What should I do if my 'check engine' light is on?

For a 'check engine' light potentially related to catalytic converter issues, use one bottle for approximately 20 liters of fuel. However, if the light persists after using the product, it is crucial to have the vehicle diagnosed by a professional mechanic.

Does this product lubricate the engine?

Yes, the cleaner works during engine operation and provides excellent lubrication during the cleaning phase, helping to prevent re-depositing of removed particles.

Where should I store the product?

Store the bottle in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and heat sources, and keep it out of reach of children and pets.

Is this product safe for my fuel system components?

Yes, it is designed to be safe for all components of the gasoline fuel system when used according to the recommended dosage and instructions.

Troubleshooting

Product did not resolve 'check engine' light.

This cleaner is designed to address issues related to catalytic converter efficiency and oxygen sensor fouling. If the 'check engine' light persists, the issue may be due to mechanical damage to the catalytic converter, a faulty oxygen sensor, or another engine-related problem that requires professional diagnosis and repair.

No noticeable improvement in performance.

Ensure the product was added correctly to the fuel tank and that the tank was refueled afterwards. Allow for a full tank of driving for the cleaner to circulate and take effect. If no improvement is seen after a full tank cycle, the buildup may be too severe for chemical cleaning alone, or another issue may be present.

Difficulty pouring the product into the fuel tank.

Ensure the fuel cap is fully opened and that the bottle's opening is correctly aligned with the fuel filler neck. Some fuel filler necks may have internal restrictors; ensure the bottle fits securely.
