It fixed the ticking in my 2008 Mazda MX5. Done as part of an oil change and allowed for the extra volume of Ceratec to total volume. My son was with me when we started the engine and we instantly looked at each other once the engine turned over. The before and after was clear. No more ticking. Even after a several subsequent oil changes.
I have a 2023 GT and had a tick/knock after the first oil change at the dealer. I put in Ceratec and after around 2 months the sound improved but engine seemed a little sluggish compared to prior to oil change. I dropped the oil after 7,500K from the first service and noticed that the dealer over filled the oil by nearly 1L. I put in the correct amount of Liqui Molly 5w 30 and didn’t add Ceretec and the engine is purring like a little baby now. If you have the issue maybe put in an oil flush then drain oil. Replace oil being careful to fill to the excact amount 9.5L.
I have used alot of additives in my cars the best one is called (Extralube ZX1) its from the UK and originally designed to cool and to stop wear on north sea oil rig drilling drill bits! I swear by it,instant quiet engine,you can put it even in coolant to protect water pump and also in fuel
Ceratech 100% fixed my 2021 engine tick. It was so loud I would hear it from inside the car at drive-thrus if I had the window down. All day every day, warm or cold. Ever since the ceratech, no more ticks.
Same! Drive-thrus are the worst! I have a 2014 GT California Special, and it has the barbeque/typewriter tick that the 2018+ owners complain about. Hear it most in the drive-thrus or pulling into the garage. It's usually only after driving the car for a while, but it's very annoying. I think 5W-20 is just too thin of an oil for these 5.0 Coyotes. There's a reason Ford calls for 5W-50 in the track package Mustangs.
I used ceratec on a 2017 Mustang GT and this aditive after some hundred of miles get rid of it. But when you do an oil change again the sound come back, now im going to add another bottle.
I have a 19gt and had the tick then used that 5-20 pennzoil ultra platinum and legit the sound it gone. It’s really quiet now. Was previously running royal purple 6-30
@@8.8inchesinmyrear it's gonna be almost the same as using ceratec . Gonna quite down the ticking for a while until the oil starts to degrade a bit and loses some of it qualities. Ceratec gonna last until you change your oil but once you change the oil, the ticking will comeback. So you have to use it everytime you change your oil . Imo you might as well just use the penzoil ultra plat instead of paying extra for ceratec especially if you change your oil every 5-7k . Ceratec might work a lil longer but if you change your oil frequently, you're just wasting more money
disclaimer, when you had the ceratec, It must be 9.5 L of oil/ceratec mic, you don't put 9.5l oil and then add ceratec because you will overfill it, for example if you are to add 500 lm of ceratec, you put 9L of oil and 500 ml of ceratec... also ceratec is said to last for at least 2 oil flush so no need to add it all the time , or you can half the quantity for the nexts ones
@@philippebrebion6203 so adding in the Ceratec, you don’t actually have to split the difference. Every engine is made to accept a little bit of overfill of oil. It’s common across almost every vehicle. The small amount of ceratec being added in won’t affect anything or overfill in your engine
Over-filling the engine by 2/3rds of a quart will quiet an engine down. It's an old-school used car trick to hide a toasted engine; add extra oil and it quiets the engine down.
You need to take out the same amount of oil as the ceratec that goes in. You never want to have the oil level over the fill line cause too much oil can cause damage.
No you don’t. That little amount doesn’t affect it enough. Every engines able to be overfilled a little bit on purpose, for the specific reason of people accidentally overfilling. Nothing more then about .5 - 1qt more though. Anything more and it will most likely get cycled back through the manifold
Did you know this folks. This needs to be added to each oil change. My question to liqui moley was the following. When vehicle is due a service interval after i have used cretec for the first service. Liqui moley: All the liquids, leave the engine bay. You can have your vehicle serviced. And drive the vehicle with cretec in the system and the rest has left the engine during the engine oil service. Liqui moley recommended a new bottle is added at each service to maintain 100 percent cretec protection. 💯
So if the car takes 8 Qts.. Do you add 2 bottles to 8 quarts or to you subtract 2 bottles of fluid (600 ml) and basically add this to 7.5 qts of oil so the total volume of liquid is still 8 qts ?
Gene realistically you can add in the 2 bottle on top of the 8 without worry. But the recommended use would be to add subtract the fluid from the oil needed. So yes 7.5 is how much you’d add in oil

The best Mustang engine ever built is the Ford Windsor 302 efi Interceptor engine. Close to 600 horsepower, unlimited horsepower range and no ticking noises. Quite and smooth.
I bought my 18 GT 6spd new and have never heard anything abnormal. This video sounds exactly the same as before. New engines make noise it’s normal. I think the “tick” is a paranoia thing or it’s the normal sound of the components on the engine. Piston slap could be a possibility but it definitely has a distinct sound and there is no way an additive will help if it’s the issue. There have been 18-21 GTs come off the show room with piston slap so it’s not that unlikely. Ford will do everything they can to not acknowledge it also.
I should probably update this video but I will agree this video sounds exactly the same before and after 😂 I no longer have this video, but after getting rid of it we took apart the engine and it did have scoring all along the cylinder walls throughout 3 cylinders

@@ah4800 I did have headers on the vehicle when I brought it to them and they claimed the headers caused the issue to the engine. A bunch of BS I already know but it is what it is I guess 😂
seems like a great way to stop the ticking. The way I'm thinking is if your engine oil is reading top of the fill range then adding 600ml of Ceratec is going to over fill the oil capacity of the engine - not a good thing. I suppose the best way is to add it when doing an oil change and allow the 600ml in the fill up. Adding after the oil change means you should remove 600ml of oil first?
Metatron Men yeah that what it says on the bottle. I don’t doubt that’s the case but my tick definitely went away. It’s a huge noticeable difference you can’t miss
@@BrandonChinn i have a good experience as well, i have a fusion with ecoboost engine and had a tapping noise under the hood, is a car of the year so I went to the dealership and they said is normal, is the high pressure fuel pump, in the factory oil i pour molybdenum mos2 and after 2k miles i changed the oil for Amsoil synthetic also added ceratec, after few hundred miles the noise was gone, after other 7k I changed the oil for Amsoil only, running in oil only now with no noise.
So now your oil level is above max? Additives are supposed to be added with oil so you still have the correct oil level. You could also remove some oil before dumping two bottles of more liquid into your oil.
By standard it is technically above max but engines are built to withhold excess oil in case of overfill. Obviously not much but those two little bottles aren’t going to affect anything
Add Forte Gas Treatment. I'll think that sound also might come injectors? Also lifters make some noise, if i heard right.. But these are cheap tests. Ceratec to oil and petrol treatment, like Forte.
Ticking noise usually happens when a good beat down happens no shit in a bottle is going to put metal or bearings , timing chain stretch back and like it's really fixed. U keep telling ur self it's fixed and see how long that works

My 2020 GT ticked after the first oil change. Added ceratec and it was gone until my most recent oil change. Planning on adding another dose. Whatcha think?
Ceratec will only work so long you have it in your oil. Once you change your oil, it will no longer give you the benefits. So you have to use it every oil change if you want the benefits.

Just got my 2015 and I can’t stand this noise I’m wanting to get some of this but my oil change was at 62k miles and I have 65k is it okay just to add it? Or does it need to be after a oil change?
@@BrandonChinn I did and it got rid of my tic! So I have been doing alot of digging and it seems mobil 1 is a common denominator...ppl claim amsoil and Pennsoil is the best and won't permit a tic. I'm just glad the ceratec worked but I'm gonna try one of those 2 oil brands next oil change and see what happens.
So on the bottle, it states that it’s good for 5 liters of oil which is roughly 5 quarts give or take. 18-22 mustangs take 10qts of oil which would be equivalent to 2 bottles or 10liters. That’s why I used two bottles. I’m sure 1 will still help! But I wanted to cover my bases when trying this
@@BrandonChinn I see I didn't read the bottle because like I told you earlier this one guy on the video only use one so I assumed I'm just supposed to use one well thank you for that info I really appreciate the video thanks again
Warming up the engine is required it just makes it much easier to change the oil. Heating the oil will allow it the flow much quicker and smoother out of the pan then if the engine was still cold
Guys use motosilk engine treatment that one is best high mileage cars and muscles cars recommended and no needs to use every oil change one time using protects over 100.000 miles little bit expensive 😎
@@BrandonChinn My 19 gt, is consuming too much oil. I'm pouring oil approximately every 1000 miles, it's not leaking. But I don't understand, it's not normal.
Is this an actual fix, a bandaid or psychological &&&&. Everyone needs to look up THE OIL GEEK. Adding these additives in general can be more harmful than good, it also depends on what type of engine oil you are using. Some brands of additives react harshly to certain oils, so hence your engine protection is compromised- bearings, piston bore and so on. PLEASE, PLEASE DO YOUR RESEARCH PEOPLE and what you may find might make your head spin. Good luck 😂
@@BrandonChinn Hi Brandon, sorry to hear about the piston bore, but again using oil additives will DECREASE PROTECTION even more if you already have damage as it reacts with the chemistry of the oil. I use 5w- 30 full synthetic and have had no issues. Good luck. Vic

Bad Boy I’m saying man. Literally a gamble. Don’t actually know if it helped or not but around 30k I’m gonna do an update to see what happens. Also have my oil change coming up so we’ll see how that’s looking too
hey man! how many miles were you after an oil change? I am currently at about 8000 miles, and changed around 6700 and was wondering if it would be safe to use the ceramic? or should I do an oil change and add the ceramic then?
There’s two ticks! There a normal tick you can hear from the injectors then theirs and engine tick. The camera does a terrible job picking up the engine tick I believe so it was hard to hear
Add Ceratec to engine, drive 120-300miles. Then you will hear the difference.
Oh yeah I drove way more then that and I DEFINITELY hear the difference 😂

thereissomecoolstuff so my car takes about 11 qts, so I kinda just substituted a bit of that eleventh quart with the ceratec!
@@BrandonChinn Sounds good. Mine takes 10 quarts which is a lot. Hard to believe it can still run hot with that much oil..
My car uses 5.8 quarts of oil. I should be fine with just the 1 bottle correct?
What type of exhaust you have? Sounds great
Your car engine sounds broken
Do I have to drain some oil out before adding this to the engine? Thank you
Nope! You should be okay to add it in!
Just got my 2015 and I can’t stand this noise I’m wanting to get some of this but my oil change was at 62k miles and I have 65k is it okay just to add it? Or does it need to be after a oil change?
No you can definitely still add it in!
Hey I was interested in using it in my 2019 Ram 6.4. Just one
You can definitely use it if recommended 2 due to your engine size but one can still provide small benefits as well!
It's ok to add even tho I just did oil change yesterday with 8 qts? Do I add 1 whole bottle to 8 qts oil?
Ye still good too add
@@BrandonChinn I did and it got rid of my tic! So I have been doing alot of digging and it seems mobil 1 is a common denominator...ppl claim amsoil and Pennsoil is the best and won't permit a tic. I'm just glad the ceratec worked but I'm gonna try one of those 2 oil brands next oil change and see what happens.
@@tehshape I actually only use Amsoil now and I HIGHLY RECOMMEND. So much I became a dealer for them. They are quality no doubt
Why do you use two bottles I'm curious most people that have 5.0 only use one any reason for that
So on the bottle, it states that it’s good for 5 liters of oil which is roughly 5 quarts give or take. 18-22 mustangs take 10qts of oil which would be equivalent to 2 bottles or 10liters. That’s why I used two bottles. I’m sure 1 will still help! But I wanted to cover my bases when trying this
@@BrandonChinn I see I didn't read the bottle because like I told you earlier this one guy on the video only use one so I assumed I'm just supposed to use one well thank you for that info I really appreciate the video thanks again
Hi there,
Can I use/safe to use liqui moly CeraTec or mos2 for 2013 MERCEDES Vito 122 CDI.
Thanks in advance
Yes it is safe
I have a tahoe 2016 idk if I should use one or two bottles of ceratec can anyone tell me?
1 bottle is good for 6 quarts. So if you require more then 8 quarts I would recommend 2 bottles
You are doing it wrong !! You are supposed to warm up the engine and then open the oil cap and pour the Ceratec on a running engine .
Hello dear i m Adeel Emmanuel from Pakistan I have Suzuki Baleno 04 model i m using egine oil 20 50 can I use this oil 150ml
You say "ticking", why don't you try Liqui moly hydraulic additive?
ceratec is inserted into the engine with the engine running ??
preferred with the engine turned off but you can still add it in. Very possible you might make a mess lol
Hello, did it work after a few days?
Solution is 5w50 liqui moly oil and ceratec best combo
Leichtlauf?
Where is it said to warm up the engine first?
Warming up the engine is required it just makes it much easier to change the oil. Heating the oil will allow it the flow much quicker and smoother out of the pan then if the engine was still cold
Guys use motosilk engine treatment that one is best high mileage cars and muscles cars recommended and no needs to use every oil change one time using protects over 100.000 miles little bit expensive 😎
Actually that doesn’t sound like a bad idea. I’m definitely going to look into it, thanks for the heads up!
Besides the exahust it sound like my 2.0 TFSI :D
Have you checked the compression in each of the cylinders? I thought this issue caused some of the bores to become non-circular.
Wrong! And that issue wouldn’t cause a tick at idle anyways
Have you checked the bolts 🔩 on the head covers
My oil looks like chocolate milk with very small white swirls kinda like when you put coffee creamer in a coffee am I the only one?
Mine looks like this too... it is normal after running the car.
so you put the 10 quarts and then add one bottle of ceratec? is this correct
Yes
Now I’m confused, you’ve been saying to add “2” bottles & now you’re agreeing that it’s “1” bottle to 10 qts of oil. 🤔
Bro i have the same problem, Is it normal that it also consumes more oil?
Is it a lot of oil consumption we’re talking about?
@@BrandonChinn My 19 gt, is consuming too much oil. I'm pouring oil approximately every 1000 miles, it's not leaking. But I don't understand, it's not normal.
@@fimidjsharry4017 What oil do you use? Also, do you have any mods on the vehicle?
I only had to use one bottle.
I can hear everything. Nothing changed😂😂 its only placebo effect
For 7.5 liter of oil should i use 1 bottle ceratec or 2?
Thank you..
3z n technically it’s 5qts per bottle. I’d suggest 2
@@BrandonChinn ok 👍 thank you very much
Cant believe you put that milk in. Also, you didnt drain anything out first. Didnt hear any change.
another poor test...there is absolutly no noise change ! you need to understand that it needs miles before being effective...
What is it that he can't hear? Sounds exactly the same! Thanks for proving nothing, well done, bravo
After editing the vid I realized it couldn’t be heard on camera. After about 3 days of driving the ticking has gone away
Wow bro chill out
No difference at all dude
Is this an actual fix, a bandaid or psychological &&&&. Everyone needs to look up THE OIL GEEK. Adding these additives in general can be more harmful than good, it also depends on what type of engine oil you are using. Some brands of additives react harshly to certain oils, so hence your engine protection is compromised- bearings, piston bore and so on. PLEASE, PLEASE DO YOUR RESEARCH PEOPLE and what you may find might make your head spin. Good luck 😂
Can’t tell you if this fixed anything but I will say I did have scoring on the cylinder walls of the engine, most likely prior to using any of this
@@BrandonChinn Hi Brandon, sorry to hear about the piston bore, but again using oil additives will DECREASE PROTECTION even more if you already have damage as it reacts with the chemistry of the oil. I use 5w- 30 full synthetic and have had no issues. Good luck. Vic
Sounds worse. You’re listening to very normal engine operating sounds.
sorry mate its you :D its still there just a bit softer :/
Haha figured, over some time now i have noticed it is gone, all i hear now are the injectors which is a good thing! But hell placebo effect initially I wouldn't doubt that XD
@@BrandonChinn well, then I'm happy for you :) this tick is crazy.. Do you think that ceratec actually helped ? No one exactly knows why it's there :D
Someone wrote YT comment, that it could be some minor piston slap (which should be okay) that is heard because of plastic oil pan. @that1320chick had disassembled engine and nothing extreme has been found just some minor wear. So many options..
It scares you to buy a new GT. It's like lottery to get one that doesn't tick, haha :D
Bad Boy I’m saying man. Literally a gamble. Don’t actually know if it helped or not but around 30k I’m gonna do an update to see what happens. Also have my oil change coming up so we’ll see how that’s looking too
I feel dizzy after watching your video. Too much vibration like you're in a heavy storm.
I still heard it
The engine sounds like my n55 noisy
You should have changed the oil.
The car just got an oil change lol
Put new oil and than had the created.
Any update if its good to use ?
Monir Nassar I would recommend to use it! Quiet the engine down a lot more then I was expecting
Whats your issue with the noise? Its supposed to tick
how much do you know how to use ?
One bottle for every 5 liters I believe
@@BrandonChinn 5 liters or did you mean 5 quarts?
@@frankscott8555 5 quarts lol good catch
Placebo effect
Yeah it sounds like a collapsed lifter bud
I have better luck using the Liqui Moly MoS2.
Its the timing chain making noise...i had same noise coming through underneath
The timing chain makes a slightly different noise, I know ford is notorious for cam phasers and chain tensioners though 😂😂
I used it today in my 2018 Gt today, and the tick stopped!!
Gregg Narcisse dude that’s awesome! I’m glad it worked for you!!
@@BrandonChinn wish u the best brother
Gregg Narcisse thank you man, you as well!
@@BrandonChinn all good Brother
hey man! how many miles were you after an oil change? I am currently at about 8000 miles, and changed around 6700 and was wondering if it would be safe to use the ceramic? or should I do an oil change and add the ceramic then?
Is that consistent ticking normal?! Mine sounds just like this at idle!
There’s two ticks! There a normal tick you can hear from the injectors then theirs and engine tick. The camera does a terrible job picking up the engine tick I believe so it was hard to hear
@@BrandonChinn Okay cool! I guess I have the normal tick! Thanks alot!
@@granthenneke yeah of course man!!
Bro it sounds exactly the same as before you put that crap in, how much they pay you to sell out ?
do i have to drain the equal amount of oil before putting it?
No you do not
