The Early Years

Castrol GTX was launched in 1968 in the UK market. The oil used the same new ‘liquid tungsten’ technology as ‘New Formula Castrol’ (launched two years earlier) and was billed as the ‘high performance motor oil’ suitable for every car under every condition of operation.
Engine cholesterol is a dark substance that builds up and clogs oil passages and important engine parts the same way cholesterol clogs a heart.

Severe driving conditions can all cause the build up of a thick, tar-like substance called sludge. These may be:

# Extended intervals between oil changes
# Low fuel quality
# Excessive heat and humidity
# Extensive idling or stop and go traffic
# Choosing the incorrect oil for your engine
# If untreated, sludge can rob an engine of power and, ultimately, its life.

The symptoms of sludge are:

#Higher fuel consumption
#Decreased engine power
#Engine overheating
#Low oil pressure

How does Castrol GTX work?

Severe driving conditions such as heavy traffic, poor fuel quality, harsh weather conditions and exceeding oil change intervals can all cause the build up of a thick tar-like substance called sludge. If untreated, it can rob an engine of power and ultimately its life.

How does the product solve these problems and why should you believe it does this better than the competition?
