CD-2 Maxx oil treatment

[JackFish]

This stuff in the silver bottle was on sale at my local Canadian Tire, so I picked up a couple.
I can't seem to find any info on what's in it.
Any ideas? Seems the big hype on the package is "now with anti-wear protection".
I'm just looking for a SLOB substitute, cause we don't have slob up here in Canada.
I'll supply a sample if anyone wants to chip in for a VOA, any Canucks out there want to pony up?
I'm not sure even where to get an analysis done up here either, any suggestions?

I believe that they sell that down here. It's relatively new. If you email them, they may give you a slight idea. I'd bet that it's another zddp additive. Hmmm, I wonder if CD-2 will venture into moly?

 

[BrianWC]

I just took a look at the website:

*Increased viscosity and friction modifiers for MAXIMUM engine protection.
* Stops oil bu4rning and exhaust smoke.
* Restores compression and seals worn rings.

Sounds like zddp and a VII. Not bad but don't pay a WHOLE lot.

On sale here for $3.69CDN, which is as about as cheap as it's going to get.
I sent an email and asked for a data sheet.

Looks like I'll be making a stop at Canadian Tire tomorrow. How long is the sale on for?

What is Mrs. Butterworths?
And on what?

 

[BrianWC]

Mrs. Butterworth's is syrup. He's implying it's a "motor honey" product.

It's not though. Most of the CD-2 stuff is fairly thin.

I think that CD-2 Maxx oil treatment has a viscosity in the gazillions (no units listed). It is an STP-like product in relation to viscosity. It is advertised as "increases viscosity."

Ever get that data sheet?

 

[JackFish]

No, not yet.
Was just on a trip and I put about 3/4 of a bottle in the motor, and yes it's very thick.
Hope it doesn't varnish things up

Apologies for dredging up this thread, but did you ever get any response back from CD-2? I noticed this stuff is on sale again at Canadian Tire for less than 3 bucks.

 

[JackFish]

Not a peep, and that was after a few emails.
Tried it, and don't think it did anything good.
I dumped it out and put in some GTX HM and my car is now more quiet and smooth than ever.
