The aftermarket's top products of 2023: No. 2

Before our 2023 TPS top products countdown reaches its conclusion, we introduce one more first-time participant to our annual event.

Valvoline clocks in as our runner up this year thanks to its  Blue Restore Gen2 motor oil, which the company says is capable of reducing or eliminating engine overhauls for diesel trucks. 

Introduced during TMC in March, Valvoline says Blue Restore is a unique formulation 10W-30 that is designed to provide advanced engine cleanup in a single service. Developed in partnership with Cummins and endorsed and recommended by the engine maker, Blue Restore is based on a blend of Group IV/Group V synthetic base oils coupled with a special additive package originating in Premium Blue CK-4 chemistry. 

The oil's unique formulation helps remove piston deposits that can originate from fuel and engine oil combustion, Valvoline says, and when implemented at the right time during a vehicle's life, Valvoline says the oil can clean an engine so well that a likely overhaul date is extended months or even years. Extensively tested for years by Cummins in both engine and field service, Blue Restore Gen2 has shown no harm to engine components and system performance, the company adds.
