What Is LIQUI MOLY Molygen New Generation 5W-50?

LIQUI MOLY Molygen New Generation 5W-50 is a high-tech engine oil developed with innovative additive technology and the special Molygen additive. It is designed to reduce frictional losses, help protect engine components against wear and prevent the formation of deposits. These properties support engine cleanliness, smooth operation and long-term engine protection when the oil is used in an application approved by the vehicle manufacturer.

The oil has a distinctive fluorescent green appearance associated with its Molygen formulation. Its SAE 5W-50 viscosity grade provides cold-start flow characteristics associated with the 5W rating and higher operating-temperature viscosity associated with the 50 grade. However, the correct oil must always be selected according to the vehicle manufacturer’s recommended viscosity and specifications.
