Purpose and Specifications

LIQUI MOLY 1024 is a fully synthetic hypoid gear oil (SAE 75W-90, API GL4/GL5/MT-1) designed for manual transmissions, auxiliary drives, and differentials without limited-slip setups. It delivers extreme wear protection and smooth operation from -40°C cold starts to over 150°C high-heat conditions, meeting strict approvals from BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Volvo, and ZF like ZF TE-ML 02B/05A/12L/12N/16F/17B/19C/21A.

• Key Benefits: Quieter shifting, reliable lubrication under heavy loads, flows easily in freezing weather, stays thick during towing or racing.
• 1L plastic bottle perfect for most passenger cars and light trucks.
• Enables oil changes every 100,000-150,000 km or 5-7 years under normal driving; shelf life 5 years unopened.

When to Use / Replace?

Use this premium oil during transmission service if your vehicle manual specifies 75W-90 GL4/GL5 or matching ZF/BMW specs. Ideal for high-performance driving, frequent towing, or extreme climates. Replace every 60,000-100,000 km (or 3-5 years) in severe conditions like stop-go traffic, off-road, or hot summers to prevent gear wear and noise.

Pro Tip: Check fluid level and condition monthly; dark, burnt-smelling oil means change now.
