Heavy-duty vehicles and commercial trucks endure a lot of strain from overloading, challenging road conditions and harsh weather. To keep their engines running smoothly, they need a high-performance diesel engine oil like Kixx HDX. This premium commercial diesel engine oil boasts a wide range of benefits and proven performance results in line with the latest API[1] and ACEA[2] specifications, including excellent wear resistance, outstanding sludge control, high oxidation stability and exceptional viscosity stability. Together, these factors directly contribute to Kixx HDX’s Long-Oil Drain Interval (ODI).

Rigorous field testing has shown that Kixx HDX extends the oil change cycle and minimizes engine damage, ensuring optimal protection for your heavy-duty vehicle fleet. In turn, Kixx HDX helps to keep your business running efficiently by maintaining engine durability and vehicle dependability over longer drainage intervals, saving both time and costs.

Here, we’ll take a closer look at the extensive benefits offered by Kixx HDX, with a particular focus on its Long-ODI performance.

 

Field-Tested Long-ODI Performance

Kixx HDX’s superior Long-ODI has been validated through a 140,000-kilometer field test in actual driving conditions.

Kixx HDX’s superior Long-ODI has been validated through a 140,000-kilometer field test in actual driving conditions.

Specially designed for commercial diesel vehicles, Kixx HDX’s superior Long-ODI has been validated through a 140,000-kilometer field test in actual driving conditions. This test involved adding Kixx HDX to commercial trucks, with samples taken every 10,000 km.

Field Test Conditions

 

*Oil Drain Interval varies depending on operating conditions (general ~ severe) and proper replenishment methods for engine oil usage must be followed.
Severe operating conditions: excessive idling / excessive inflow of sand, dust in the engine / rough road (unpaved, snowy, uphill) driving / high temperatures, cold areas / frequent high-speed driving / frequent and repeated stops and starts.

The test results showed that Kixx HDX maintained its stability after 140,000 km on the road, demonstrating superior wear resistance and sludge control, as well as high oxidation stability and excellent viscosity stability.

These results serve as further proof of Kixx HDX’s Long-ODI, which ultimately ensures reliable, long-lasting performance on the road.

Proven Performance Points That Maximize ODI

Kixx HDX’s Excellent Wear Resistance

 

1. Excellent Wear Resistance

In extreme operating conditions, engine friction can lead to wear, introducing iron and aluminum shavings into the engine oil and causing engine performance issues. However, after the 140,000 km drive test with Kixx HDX, the quantity of metal components detected in the engine oil was significantly lower than the control level, showcasing Kixx HDX’s superior wear resistance.

Kixx HDX’s Outstanding Sludge Control

 

Sludge in the oil pan (engine oil tank) of test vehicles showed that commercial trucks using Kixx HDX had a sludge rating of 1.6 Merit higher than those using competing engine oils, demonstrating Kixx HDX’s excellent sludge control.

Kixx HDX’s High Oxidation Stability

3. High Oxidation Stability

Maintaining good TAN[3] stability is crucial for engine performance, as engine oil oxidation leads to corrosion and wear of engine components. Similarly, maintaining a high TBN[4] is vital when it comes to reducing oxidation levels. Kixx HDX offers high oxidation stability with minimal variation in TAN and TBN, even during long-distance driving conditions.
