The gearbox is one of the main components in a car. The normal performance of both the engine and transmission depends on its functioning. Often it is its condition that affects the lifespan of the car.
To increase the durability of the gearbox, drivers use various methods - regularly carry out maintenance or operate their “iron horse” in a gentle manner. But the most effective method of protection is considered to be the use of special “Suprotek” compounds for manual transmissions, which are special tribological compounds.
New car maintenance tool
The Suprotek additive is a special tribotechnical composition that supports processes occurring in the friction zone by changing the properties of the contacting surfaces of parts. The additives contain minerals that optimize the contact of rubbing parts and lead to improved technical characteristics. The molecules of the Suprotek solution form a protective layer on the surfaces of intensely moving elements, increasing their antifriction properties, that is, reducing the coefficient of friction. Thanks to this, efficiency increases, fuel consumption decreases, and the durability of units increases.
The main purpose of the Suprotek composition for manual transmissions is to optimize worn edges of intensively rubbing parts and reduce gaps in friction zones. The product can be used in standard operating mode in conjunction with standard lubricants.
Properties of Suprotec
1. Maintains a denser and thicker layer of oil, which helps control engine noise and vibration. 2. Restores the principle of the oil pump, which increases the oil supply, which has a better effect on parts lubrication and heat dissipation.
Prepare your car for the season with Suprotec!
In general, Suprotec lubricant for manual transmissions in trucks is a preventive measure when the negative factors listed above occur. The sooner you start treating the system with oil, the faster the effect will appear, the mechanical appearance of the gearbox will work better.
Important! If there is an oil leak, the car engine can operate without obvious losses and can reach the nearest service station for another 100 kilometers.
Thus, if we compare Suprotec lubricating components with other competitors, Suprotec provides a connection with the metal, due to which friction pairs move to a more energetic and beneficial level. Competitive oils only provide lubrication of the elements. Suprotec lubricating components form a protective structure that affects all chains. In general, Suprotec is protection that provides better shifting in the manual transmission of the car engine from all negative factors.
Features of Suprotek additives
The features of the Suprotek additive are determined by its composition, which includes finely dispersed minerals of the group of layered silicates - serpentines, chlorites. They have high anti-friction properties. Various types of mineral oils, such as Dextron, are used as particle carriers.
The Suprotek additive for manual transmissions, which has only the best reviews, is specially adapted to work in a gearbox and has a number of features:
- forms an anti-friction protective layer up to 15 microns thick on the surface of parts, which optimizes the geometry and restores the friction surface;
- creates an oil-holding surface, resulting in friction occurring in a hydrodynamic mode;
- optimizes the operation of components until the formed protective layer is completely worn out, even after a complete change of transmission oil;
- is a chemically neutral substance, that is, it does not interact with other compounds.
Suprotek additives for manual transmissions also reduce the wear rate of working elements, prevent scuffing and are used as a supplement to the main lubricant.

Instructions for use
Mechanical and robotic gearboxes are processed as follows:
- Warm up the gearbox to operating temperature (normal operation).
- Turn off the engine.
- Thoroughly mix the bottle with the composition so that the sediment at the bottom is distributed throughout the entire volume of the liquid.
- Pour 1 bottle of the composition into the gearbox through the oil filler hole of the unit.
- Immediately after adding the composition, drive the car for 20-30 minutes in normal operation mode.
Immediately after treatment, the car can be used as usual. For long-term trouble-free operation of the gearbox, it is recommended to use the manual transmission compound after each scheduled gear oil change.
The composition is intended to protect against wear, extend the service life and restore the characteristics of manual gearboxes of passenger cars, including robotic gearboxes of any design. Precautionary measures:
- Does not pose a health hazard under normal conditions of use.
- If contact with skin occurs, wash affected area with warm water and then with soap and water.
- In case of contact with eyes, rinse with plenty of water.
- If ingested, consult a doctor.
Notes:
- Shelf life: 5 years. The date of manufacture is indicated on the label.
- It is not recommended to use in case of mechanical breakdowns of parts and assemblies.
- The manual transmission composition is compatible with all types of transmission oils, including ATF-based oils.
- 1 bottle of manual transmission composition is enough to treat any gearbox with a transmission fluid volume of up to 4.5 liters.
- The sediment at the bottom of the bottle is the main working element of the manual transmission composition - microparticles of minerals. It is extremely important to thoroughly mix the contents of the bottle before pouring into the gearbox. (The color of the sediment, depending on the release batch, can vary from light green to dark gray and black).
- The composition of the manual transmission does not interact with the clutch frictions, does not affect the wear and performance of the clutch discs, and does not prevent clutch malfunctions.
- An overdose of 1.5-2 times the composition is not dangerous for the gearbox and does not interfere with its operation.
- The composition of the manual transmission does not affect the characteristics and condition of parts made of composite materials, ceramics and rubber products.
Optimization of manual transmission operation
The active effect of additives has been proven in laboratory tests. But what is much more important is what reviews of real people say about Suprotek additives for manual transmissions. Most drivers, after using the composition, notice a significant improvement in gearbox performance, which consists of:
- to facilitate gear shifting;
- in reducing noise and vibrations;
- in increasing the vehicle's speed in neutral gear.
All this suggests that these additives are not just a “promoted brand”, but a proven tool for optimizing car performance by car enthusiasts. Some drivers also noticed an acceleration in the process of grinding in the main components after a major overhaul of the manual transmission.
Negative reviews
- “Don’t expect miracles, the metal will not be restored to its factory condition, the noise may be reduced by a couple of decibels, and there is some possibility that the smoothness of switching will improve. The synchronizer is unlikely to be restored, as far as I know, they seem to be made of copper or there is some kind of sputtering with which all these additives do not work very well. Also, if you fill in oil of the wrong GL class, you can kill the synchronizers, it literally corrodes them.”
- “I bought a used foreign car (Opel Vectra) with a manual transmission, and after a certain amount of time I began to notice that when changing gears, some minor clicks were felt. At first I thought that I would have to repair the box, although the service center advised me to add this additive to the box. I came to them twice: 3000 km before an oil change, and then again for an oil change. I read the instructions - there maintenance takes place in two stages: the additive is added to the old oil, and then to the new one. After the second stage, I only drove about 800 kilometers. It seems to have gotten better, but I can’t say for sure.” self-hypnosis that things have really gotten better.
- “Unfortunately, I’m not happy with this slurry, there’s no point) The noise is as it was and remains, the box howls as it howled) True, at high speeds some kind of whistling was added... in general there are only disadvantages. I don’t know about extending the service life... if it breaks, I’ll fix it and move on!”
- “I was a little unhappy with the factory oil in the transmission! And so I decided to replace it and at the same time try out the magic (according to the manufacturer) additive SUPROTEC MKPP-100. I purchased: a LIQUI MOLY canister - made in Germany - 5 liters, and Suprotek MKPP-100 - 2 cans. TOTAL mileage was 3000 km: in figures by consumption : On the old oil Petrol Canada - consumption 10.3 liters On the new one with Suprotek - consumption 9.4 liters It became quieter, there was a slight hum in the box when the gas pedal was released - it disappeared completely, the car became a little lighter. Refueling and measurements were carried out by refueling under the neck (and not along the BC), after emptying the first tank, the consumption did not drop, but on the last 2 it showed (9.4 and 9.32, respectively). My route is approximately the same - although with new oil I drove off-road a couple of times (which didn’t happen on the old one)”
- Review given by the brother of the car owner. You often come across such a description on the Internet, and Suprotec is no exception. My friend’s brother used the matchmaker and was very pleased, everything was just great.
