When selecting technical fluids for your car, you need to carefully study the market of available products. Motor oil is responsible for the performance of the entire engine system, so it is necessary to pay special attention to it. Among the world-famous brands, the Hado brand occupies a special position, which, despite its small age, managed to quickly win the sympathy of millions of car owners.
The company was founded in 1991 in the city of Kharkov (Ukraine). She was developing a unique technology that makes it possible to restore the capabilities of motor systems. To this day, this technology remains secret to competitive companies that have not been able to create a single similar formula.
Let's look at exactly what strengths and weaknesses motor oil has, how to distinguish original products from low-quality counterfeits, and figure out where to buy branded motor oils.
Advantages
Reviews about additives in the Hado engine, as well as other systems left by professional technologists, are positive. The components included in the additives are created on the basis of metal ceramics. Such substances allow for good gliding, with minimal impact on the surfaces of the mechanisms.
In additives, revitalizants are in the form of granules. This allows them not to react with the components contained in the base oil. Otherwise, the reaction of the standard lubricant to such a product could be unpredictable. It is likely that the additives would conflict with each other. However, in the case of using revitalizant granules, such a reaction is not observed.
To ensure complete distribution of metal-ceramic granules throughout the system, it is necessary to turn on the motor after pouring the product. The engine should run for 15 minutes at idle speed. During this time, additives will be able to settle on the surfaces of the rubbing pairs and begin to exert their beneficial effects on them.
Varieties
The choice of revitalizant depends on the characteristics of the vehicle, as well as the unit for which the product is intended. On sale are products for car engines, motorcycles, manual and automatic transmissions, power steering, fuel equipment and cylinders.
Packaging of additives is carried out in accordance with its purpose. For example, for motorcycles, products with a volume of only 4.5 ml are available for sale. Their cost is about 100-120 rubles.
The price of the Xado additive for the engine depends on the type of engine. In accordance with this indicator, packaging from 8 to 950 ml is used. The cost of such products varies from 740 to 9,500 rubles.
For fuel equipment, products with volumes from 8 to 225 ml are available for sale. The cost varies from 1000 to 2500 rubles.
Features of application
When choosing Xado additives for a gearbox, engine, cylinder block or other components, you must carefully read the manufacturer’s instructions on the rules for using such products in such components.
Experts say that for the presented components to fully influence the vehicle’s systems, the vehicle must travel from 1,500 to 2,000 km. Therefore, before adding additives, it is necessary to take into account how long the standard oil has been in use.
If the lubricant requires replacement soon, it will not be advisable to pour cermet granules into it. If you change consumables ahead of schedule, it will not have sufficient impact on worn-out mechanisms. The metal-ceramic layer simply does not have time to grow. Only after a sufficient period of use of the additives can the oil be changed. In this case, the ability of surfaces to regenerate is maintained for a long time. Refilling will be required after 60-100 thousand kilometers.
Where to buy original oil?
When buying any branded product in a store, you have the right to demand a quality certificate for it: if the seller refused to provide it or said that there were no documents available, this is a reason to change the outlet. Automotive fluids that do not have a certificate confirming their quality are dangerous to pour into the system. And before traveling around the city in search of oil from a certain manufacturer, it makes sense to visit its official website and study all the distributors in your region.
It is almost impossible to find motor oil on the open market: only in 70 cities of Russia does it have branded retail outlets. But you can order it using the online store.
You will find the range of motor oils and prices for lubricants in the company catalog. The conditions for payment and delivery of purchases will also be described here. By the way, you can get motor oil in three ways: pickup from the nearest representative office, delivery to your doorstep (if the distributor is located in your city) and with the help of a transport company, which, after full payment for purchases and for an additional fee, will deliver them to your locality. Please note that original oils must be ordered on the official website.
Expert opinions
The Xado additive for transmission, fuel system, engine, etc. must be used correctly by the vehicle owner. In addition to ensuring sufficient mileage of the car, the norms for adding additives to the standard oil must be observed.
Experts argue that it is not advisable to use more cermet granules than the manufacturer has established. Also, do not shorten the period between the first and second filling of the system with additives. This will turn out to be a waste of money.
There is a clear dosage specified by the manufacturer. For 4-5 liters of regular oil, only one standard bottle of additives is required. If a larger number of granules are present in the system, they will simply form a reserve. It will not be activated, improving the geometry of metal structures. Such components will be able to begin to actively influence the rubbing surfaces only when the need arises.
How to choose motor oil?
Selecting engine oil always begins with studying the “preferences” of your car. You can learn about them from the vehicle manual. The recommended viscosity and type of chemical base of the technical fluid used will be stated there. Deviation from these parameters will disrupt the normal operation of the engine. If you fill in oil that is too thin, extraneous noise will appear under the hood, the lubricant will begin to burn and leave a large amount of soot, and the engine will experience oil starvation. If the permissible viscosity is exceeded, the engine will not be able to start at all - the thickness will not allow the parts to interact with each other.
To ease the pain of the car enthusiast, the company has equipped its website with a service for selecting technical fluids. In order to use it, you must enter the vehicle category, its make and model, as well as the engine modification on the main page. The system will give you the appropriate engine oils, transmission fluids and cooling systems. If the make of your car is not in the list presented, fill out a special form by clicking on the button “Didn’t find the model you need?” In the window that opens, enter your contact information and information about your car. Within a few minutes, company employees will contact you and advise you on the selection of motor oil and other lubricants.
Recommendations
A car and motorcycles are a complex system. It consists of many nodes and components. To ensure their reliable operation when using Xado additives, it is recommended to undergo a complete diagnostic before adding additional protective agents to the system.
It happens that malfunctions in the operation of equipment do not occur due to the fault of worn out rubbing metal pairs. To determine the cause of the deviations, you will need to go through all the systems. Perhaps the metal of the parts does not meet the established requirements. In this case, it will be inappropriate to use additives based on metal-ceramics.
In order not to waste your money, it is necessary to exclude the possibility of other malfunctions. Only in this case will the presented additives work fully. The effect of their use will be noticeable.
Technology
Reviews of Xado additives for gearboxes, cylinder blocks and other vehicle systems indicate the high quality of such components. When used correctly, the granules have a consistent effect on the rubbing pairs.
When mechanical damage occurs, characteristic marks appear on the metal. Chips appear. Revitalizant gets onto the damaged surface. Its maximum effect occurs in the area of heaviest wear. Here, a sufficient amount of excess energy is determined to consistently carry out the recovery process. The metal in this area has the largest number of free bonds. It is these uncompensated atoms of matter that attract cermet granules. They serve as building material.
Thanks to the presented process, a kind of patch is formed at the site of the chip or damage. Relations are stabilizing. At this moment, the growth of the metal-ceramic layer stops. The protective layer is subject to diffusion. This allows you to create a very durable new coating.
Negative reviews
Reviews of additives for the Hado engine are predominantly positive. However, there are also negative statements. Some drivers do not recognize any additives in oil at all, including those produced by the Xado brand.
Negative reviews, according to experts, are caused either by improper use of metal-ceramic additives or other system malfunctions. For example, this may be caused by burnt pistons or worn oil pumps. Also, malfunctions of the crankshaft journals and bearings can cause poor performance of additives.
To avoid such troubles, as mentioned above, you should first diagnose the car. In some cases, it will not be possible to do without a full repair.
How to distinguish a fake?
Everyone knows that automobile oils are very often falsified. It is a hot commodity that generates billions of dollars for petrochemical companies every year. It is precisely because of the steadily increasing demand and very attractive profits that attackers strive to lure at least a small part of this money. They buy old oil containers, re-label them and pour fake oil into them. Every car enthusiast can recognize a fake; the main thing is to always pay attention to the quality of the stickers, solder seams and lid-fixing devices.
What’s interesting is that scammers are most often attracted by the low cost of counterfeit products, so they pay their attention to plastic containers.
Once opened, it is difficult to seal the “tins”: if you use “collective farm” equipment, the solder seams will be too noticeable and will immediately reveal a counterfeit. It is possible to carefully seal a container only with the help of expensive devices, the purchase of which will hit the pockets of scammers. A tin canister is a kind of protection for branded products from possible counterfeits.
Until today, oil consumers have never encountered counterfeit products. And this is largely due to the material of the canister. However, the absence of a detected crime does not mean that you need to let down your vigilance. Let’s look at what the original “tin” should look like in order to protect yourself from dubious products.
You can easily recognize Xado oil by the bright and stylish design of the canister. All technical lubricants are bottled by the company into tin containers with a volume of 1 to 5 liters. They are easy to use and carry and do not tip over during work. The jar has double control of the first opening, so it will not be possible to uncork the lid unnoticed and return it to its previous position. After opening the package, a watering can extends from the canister, which ensures easy pouring of oil into the car engine.
Positive reviews
Many drivers openly praise Xado additives. They claim that the car's systems operate more stably and fully. Reduced noise and vibration levels. At the same time, fuel and oil consumption is significantly reduced. Even in severe frost the engine starts easily.
There is no need to use such components in new cars. Only owners of used vehicles were able to appreciate the use of such compounds in vehicle systems and components. The use of the presented additives, according to experts, certainly will not harm the car. However, in order not to throw money away, you should approach the use of the presented funds responsibly.
Having considered what Xado additives are, we can note their high quality and unique operating principle. Their use in used cars is considered appropriate.
And finally
XADO Chemical Group is a major supplier on the global market. Its catalogs contain more than 800 types of technical fluids used to service cars and trucks. The company has representatives in more than 60 countries who cooperate with local consumers. The success of the brand forces it to constantly improve its range and offer car owners new, improved forms of machine lubricants.
However, despite the lauded reviews and high ratings on the global trading platform, the lubricant is not omnipotent: it cannot provide an increase in the performance of the internal combustion engine if it has technical parameters that are not suitable for it. On the contrary, the oil will cause serious damage to the system if its viscosity is incorrectly selected. In order for your car to serve you for hundreds of thousands of kilometers, be especially careful when selecting oil and do not purchase goods from dubious retail outlets.
