Anyone familiar with this product?

XADO is NOT an oil additive. Though we describe the XADO Gels as an additive XADO does NOT change the characteristics or viscosity of the oil in any way, unlike other oil additives and fuel treatment which do. However, we do use the oil to initially DELIVER XADO to the moving parts.

Xado - Petrol Engine treatment

This is our top selling XADO Revitalizant engine treatment for Petrol engines. This product will increase the compression in your cylinders, increase horsepower, reduce fuel consumption, exhaust emissions and will restore your vehicle to a state better than new. If you have an old car, which is burning oil, or you are loosing horsepower, or just want to maximize the potential of your car's engine, this is the product for you. It is base on a revolutionary discovery of natural minerals that affect the surface of the friction pairs and it does not affect the engine oil. It is not just another oil additives, but it is rather a unique gel which restores the geometry and weight of the machine parts in the working mechanism.

XADO

I know there are a lot of snake oil products on the market these days. Is this just another? The science behind what they are saying makes scene, especially with older well used engines. Creating a protective coating against wear is all good, but is there any truth to it actually working? If its kosher, I'd use it. But its always best to see what others think.

I am.

This product uses patented technology (actually, particular mineral), patented by russians. Ukrainian company uses that technology, but there are some issues. Russians claim that they stopped supplying components to Ukrainians so they do something on their own, and results are unpredictable. XADO says nothing bout it.

Being fluent in russian, read ALOT of info about XADO, just spend few hours couple of weeks ago researching XADO. My ex brother in law was researching that stuff some time (4-5 years) ago, got in contact with people from XADO, they were very optimistic. I got XADO about 4 years ago, treated my camry sv21 and my stagea - engine, gearbox, power steering system. SV21 done about 400k , goes OK, original engine. Still got XADO tubes at home.

Well, there are DIFFERENT opinions about XADO on the forums. Some of them are VERY interesting, that stuff seems to be working (if you get real product), at least for engines. I can dig out some photos and publish them here if people want :D

Oh, and by the way - they charge arm and a leg here in AU, XADO is CHEAP in Ukraine. I mean - cheap, few bucks per tube or so (can find exact prices). If people want to go down that path, I can probably get in touch with some people from there and organize a group buy.

PS can provide more info, but tired of typing :( Welcome to PM me with ur number if interested.

I immediately shun ANY advertisement that uses incorrect spelling/grammar (Unless its engrish computer translation).

If people have a great product, it's worth it to have someone write it that can do it properly.

"...or you are LOOSING horsepower"

"It is BASE on"

Poor editing to me reflects poor work and lack of passion in what you do, and I won't have it.

If you're going to sell a product in a country, then get the marketing language correct. I can't take a 'performance' product seriously when the manufacturer can't even articulate what their product does!

      The rain is the best time to push to the edge of the grip limit. Water lubrication reduces the consumption of rubber without reducing the fun. I take pleasure in driving around the outside of numpties in Audis, WRXs, BRZs, etc, because they get all worried in the wet. They warm up faster than the engine oil does.

      When they're dead cold, and in the wet, they're not very fun. RE003 are alright, they do harden very quickly and turn into literally $50 Pace tyres.

      Yeah, I thought that Reedy's video was quite good because he compared old and new (as in, well used and quite new) AD09s, with what is generally considered to be the fast Yokohama in this category (ie, sporty road/track tyres) and a tyre that people might be able to use to extend the comparo out into the space of more expensive European tyres, being the Cup 2. No-one would ever agree that the Cup 2 is a poor tyre - many would suggest that it is close to the very top of the category. And, for them all to come out so close to each other, and for the cheaper tyre in the test to do so well against the others, in some cases being even faster, shows that (good, non-linglong) tyres are reaching a plateau in terms of how good they can get, and they're all sitting on that same plateau. Anyway, on the AD08R, AD09, RS4 that I've had on the car in recent years, I've never had a problem in the cold and wet. SA gets down to 0-10°C in winter. Not so often, but it was only 4°C when I got in the car this morning. Once the tyres are warm (ie, after about 2km), you can start to lay into them. I've never aquaplaned or suffered serious off-corner understeer or anything like that in the wet, that I would not have expected to happen with a more normal tyre. I had some RE003s, and they were shit in the dry, shit in the wet, shit everywhere. I would rate the RS4 and AD0x as being more trustworthy in the wet, once the rubber is warm. Bridgestone should be ashamed of the RE003.

      This is why I gave the disclaimer about how I drive in the wet which I feel is pretty important. I have heard people think RS4's are horrible in the rain, but I have this feeling they must be driving (or attempting to drive) anywhere close to the grip limit. I legitimately drive at the speed limit/below speed the limit 100% of the time in the rain. More than happy to just commute along at 50kmh behind a train of cars in 5th gear etc. I do agree with you with regards to the temp and the 'quality' of the tyre Dose. Most UHP tyres aren't even up to temperature on the road anyway, even when going mad initial D canyon carving. It would be interesting to see a not-up-to-temp UHP tyre compared against a mere... normal...HP tyre at these temperatures. I don't think you're (or me in this case) is actually picking up grip with an RS4/AD09 on the road relative to something like a RE003 because the RS4/AD09 is not up to temp and the RE003 is closer to it's optimal operating window.

      Either the bearing has been installed backwards OR the gearbox input shaft bearing is loosey goosey.   When in doubt, just put in a Samsonas in.
