Auto expert Maxim Rakitin warned that after most foreign manufacturers of lubricants left Russia, unscrupulous manufacturers do not fail to take advantage. As a result, the number of counterfeit products has increased exponentially.
If in the past counterfeit products were delivered in small jerry cans, now even so-called barrels and barrels are counterfeited. Therefore, it is worth buying oil from trusted organizations that have always done this. If you have been using the services of a particular gas station for several years, there is no point in fooling you either, the auto expert noted.

He advised definitively to abandon the purchase of oil through advertisements on marketplaces, in incomprehensible car markets and at very low prices.
If he tries to save on engine oil, the car owner risks losing the car, the expert continued.
Some particularly “talented” counterfeiters pour tinted vegetable oil into canisters. Pour low-quality oil and your car will be sent to a landfill. The motor can literally stop a kilometer after you start moving, the expert concluded.
