The current pandemic situation notwithstanding, mobility plays a big part for ourselves and the people that matter most to us. Whether it’s to and from the daily grind, a leisurely day off, or an out-of-town trip, getting there is made easier with personal transportation.
The only thing that accelerates in heavy traffic is your engine's wear and tear
But regular use, especially in extreme driving scenarios such as extended idling in traffic and constantly heavy loads, will inevitably take its toll on your vehicle’s engine.
For instance, engine oil that has settled at the sump while the engine is at rest takes around 20 minutes to reach optimal temperature and provides proper lubrication.
Considering that almost 75 percent of engine wear occurs during ignition, critical components are vulnerable to heat and friction before the oil has reached them.
It might not be deliberate on your part, but the engine goes through accelerated wear and tear under such punishing conditions, dramatically shortening its service life. Want an engine oil that can protect your engine whether the car is at rest or in motion? Go for Castrol Magnatec, blended with breakthrough Dualock Technology.
Castrol Magnatec protects your engine whether it's at work or at rest
Available in three variants, Castrol Magnatec has been engineered with a decade of research and development. This has resulted in engine oil that can withstand the hidden rigors of stop-start driving, especially in urban scenarios.
Dualock Technology combines Castrol’s original formulation with new Stop-Start wear molecules, forming a powerful force-field of protection to shield vital engine parts. This achieves a 50 percent reduction in engine wear and tear, even for vehicles equipped with the latest stop-start feature.
