XADO Atomic Metal Conditioner Maximum for SUV is a one-bottle engine treatment for SUVs, 4x4s and pickups, petrol, diesel or LPG. You pour it into the engine oil, and it restores worn metal surfaces and protects the engine for 100,000 km. It carries our highest Revitalizant rating, RF 100.

People buy a 4×4 to go where other cars cannot. Up to the farm in the rains. Across the Mara on a corrugated track. Over the escarpment with the whole family and a loaded roof rack. These are the journeys the vehicle was made for, and they are also the ones where a breakdown is most serious, hours from the nearest garage.

They are hard on an engine too. An SUV engine moves two tonnes or more, often in low gear, at high temperature, pulling a load or a trailer. It wears faster than the engine of a saloon that only sees tarmac.

This treatment is built for that life. A metal conditioner improves the way the oil lubricates and shields the parts against overload and overheating. Revitalizant then rebuilds the worn surfaces of the cylinders, pistons and bearings with a hard ceramic-metal layer, formed during normal driving.

Compression rises and evens out, oil pressure returns to normal, and the engine pulls more strongly, runs more quietly and uses less fuel. Above all, it gives you an engine you can trust when you are a long way from help.

One bottle does the job. The treatment completes over 1,000 to 1,500 km, with protection for 100,000 km.

Why drivers choose it

It restores worn surfaces and makes up for ongoing wear. It equalises and increases compression across the cylinders. It raises oil pressure to its normal value. It protects parts against overload and overheating. It reduces fuel consumption. It increases engine power and acceleration. It reduces noise and vibration. And it extends the life of the engine, with protection for 100,000 km from a single application.

Made for vehicles like yours

SUVs, 4x4s, crossovers and light trucks with an engine oil capacity of 5 to 10 litres: Toyota Land Cruiser, Prado, Fortuner and Hilux; Nissan Patrol and Navara; Mitsubishi Pajero and L200; Isuzu D-Max and MU-X; Ford Ranger and Everest; Land Rover Discovery and Defender; and Toyota Hiace and other vans.

It suits a vehicle that tows, carries heavy loads or spends time off-road, a high-mileage engine that has lost some of its pull, and any 4×4 you rely on for long trips upcountry.

For smaller cars with up to 5 litres of oil, choose XADO Atomic Metal Conditioner Maximum. For trucks, choose Maximum for Diesel Truck. Not sure of your oil capacity? Tell our specialists your make, model and year.

A fair word of caution: Revitalizant restores worn surfaces. It cannot mend broken parts, a failed head gasket or an engine that is already knocking. If in doubt, let our specialists assess the engine first.

Genuine XADO, straight from the source

Every bottle we sell comes directly from XADO and arrives sealed. Our Nairobi service centre can apply the treatment for you.

The best trips end where the tarmac does. Make sure your engine is ready for them.

How to use

Apply it soon after an oil change, because the oil must stay in the engine while the treatment works.

Make sure the bottle is at room temperature, at least 25°C. Warm the engine to its normal working temperature, then switch it off. Shake the bottle well and pour the full contents into the engine through the oil filler. One bottle treats an oil system of up to 10 litres.

Start the engine and let it idle for 3 to 5 minutes. Then drive as normal.

The treatment takes place over the next 1,000 to 1,500 km. Do not change the oil during that time. One application protects for 100,000 km.

For the best continuing protection, XADO recommends using XADO Atomic oils afterwards.
