"Liqui-Moly Ceratec: A Notable Exception

For engines with Lokasil and Alusil bores, the use of friction modifiers like Liqui-Moly Ceratec has been shown to reduce friction and wear. When added to factory A40-approved oils, these additives enhance the oil’s ability to protect cylinder walls under extreme conditions. Swepco 502 Oil Improver is also a suitable alternative to Ceratec to boost friction modifier levels."

Thats straight from LN engineering, the guys who make countless aftermarked solutions for the m96, and see a lot of them.

"Those concerned about Porsche Cylinder Bore Scoring should know that using an oil with high levels of moly is important to preventing cylinder bore scoring. Porsche A40 or C40 approved oils do not have sufficient levels, which may require supplementation with a product like Liqui-moly's MoS2 or Ceratec treatments. However, if using Driven DT40 or DI40 oils in your Porsche, no additive is required as these oils already have high levels of moly friction modifiers to help prevent Porsche cylinder bore scoring."

Thats straigjt from Charles Navarro himself.

Driven oils are not available in my country, so Ceratec is most def going in my engine on the regular.
