Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
General requirements
High-temperature multipurpose grease consists of a lithium complex soap in a mineral oil raffinate in combination with select additive combinations. The soap is contained in the oil with a very fine distribution and virtually serves as a structure.
This lubricating grease has the following quality features:
- Thermal stability:
- At operating temperatures of minus 30° C to plus 150° C in continuous operation as well as high load, the structure and consistency must be maintained over a long service life.
- Oxidation resistance:
- To prevent oxidation at high operating temperature, lubricating grease contains effective inhibitors (inhibitors that limit or prevent chemical processes).
- Water resistance and corrosion prevention:
- The high-temperature multipurpose greases are resistant against water. At the same time, the greased components are optimally protected by corrosion inhibitors against corrosive effects.

- • You smell fuel, burning insulation, or see smoke.
- • Brakes feel soft, pull hard to one side, or make grinding noises.
- • The engine overheats, stalls repeatedly, or misfires under load.
- • You are missing required tools, torque specs, or safe lifting equipment.
- • You are not confident in the next step or safety outcome.
