The practice of many motorists confirms that correctly selected engine oil (MM) contributes to the long and sound operation of the car engine. A variety of modern MM brands and their shocking advertising often pushing the drivers to commit an increasing choice. Some of them forget about the need for a thorough approach to the choice of lubricating fluid directly affecting performance car Engine.
Innovative oil GM-5W30
Experts of the automotive industry, as well as experienced drivers, recommend relying on tested, rating brands. One of the products of recognized brands is the oil GM-5W30. It is by its formula refers to the minorial synthetic.
The temperature range of efficient operation is quite wide: from -35 about C - up to +50 o C. When it is created, innovative ingredients were used, which contributed to widespread recognition of the quality of this product in the world. Numerous motorist reviewers testify to reducing the engine wear dynamics, as well as the optimization of fuel consumption.
Oil properties
Characteristics of oil are quite modern and indicate its innovation. Low viscosity indicates the fluidity and ability to securely protect the engine. The extensive temperature range indicates the versatility of its use:
- viscosity characteristic -5W-30;
- the fire temperature of the liquid - 222 0 s, significantly lowers the risk of the flash (usually the motors are not heated to such temperatures);
- kEEFT-T viscosity of the working motor at a temperature of 100 ° C - 11.2 mm2 / s;
- coefficient viscosity of a working motor at a temperature of 40 ° C 66 mm2 / s;
- Mm freezes at 36 o C, so it is calculated as a maximum for the winters of a moderate climatic belt;
- alkal index in mm - 9.6 mg;
- viscosity index - 146;
- mM density at a temperature of 20 ° C - 853 kg / m3.
Decent product of the American Auto industry
Engine oil GM-5W30, as can be seen from its name, produced by the famous American mega autocompania General Motors. However, not only it, but also the cooperating French manufacturer motul oils Specific. Single line of oil produced has dozens of different configurations and is designed for tens different marks Car:
- "Chevrolet";
- "Volkswagen";
- "Fiat";
- sports Holden;
- "Renault";
- "Pontiac".
- "Mercedes";
- "Opel";
- "Deo";
- "Cadillac";
- gMC SUVs;
- "BYUK";
- "Alfeon".
For modern cars
His additives oxidize the details of the motors of the last century not designed for them. When operating a completely good old engine with a new mm, we feel the smell of Gary and, as a result of their accelerated wear, a knock in the engine appears.
Formula that has become standard
As the driver's reviews are evidenced, the GM-5W30 oil is currently a sales hit. It is preferable because the direct text is recommended in specifications Cars mentioned above. It is certified in systems:
- ACEA A3 / B3;
- ACEA A3 / B4;
- ACEA C3;
- API CF;
- API SM.
Open certificate tolerances
In addition, real motorists will highly appreciate the fact that the GM-5W30 oil has certificate tolerances:
- BMW Longlife-04;
- DEXOS2;
- GM-LL-A-025;
- GM-LL-B-025;
- MB 229.51;
- VW 502.00;
- VW 505.00;
- VW 505.01.
Universality and functionality
Motor oil GM-5W30 is manufactured synthetically with the maintenance of technological requirements, the main of which is the maximum savings of gasoline and the protection of the engine from the clogging it exhaust gases. The quality of GM 5W30 shows the fact that it itself is the basis for the standard DEXOS2 oils with a viscosity of class 5W30.
The original GM-5W30 oil is suitable for both gasoline engines and diesel. It contains additives that purify the engine from a nagar formed when the fuel is accessed. Thus, this high-tech fluid contributes to saving gasoline, the safety of the oil filter and the automotive motor. According to motorists, it is, in principle, it is possible to replace new after 10 thousand km of mileage, although the standard technology assumes it to make every 7.5 thousand km.
Synthetic or semi-synthetic?
Beginner drivers often doubt: what is more suitable for their car oil GM-5W30 synthetic or semi-synthetic? Indeed, now enjoy the popularity of GM oil both on the semi-synthetic, and on a synthetic basis. As an example, the first group includes GM-10W40, GM General Motors Dexron VI to the second XENUM OEM-LINE GM DEXOS2 5W30, Xenum OEM-Line GM Dexos2 5W30. It is noteworthy that the GM-5W30 engine oil under consideration is manufactured in both modifications.
The choice between them is determined by a feature. concrete brand Car, namely: Is it suitable for its engine the use of synthetic engine oil, which has a sufficiently aggressive package of additives, effective for removing the car. Soften effect on the inner metal surfaces of the engine provides GM-5W30 oil (semi-synthetic).
Test for frost resistance
The following testing for frost resistance oil GM-5W30 oil is represented on automotive Internet sites. It was produced by taking it from a car motor with a mileage of 9 thousand km. (The oil turned out to be dark, with the smell of Ugon) and its further premises into a powerful refrigerator at -25 o C.
Even with low temperatures, the oil turned out to be operational and effective: the physical properties of oil, withstood such a decent mileage changed little (we visually compare it with a new oil). Thus, GM-5W30 can be used long enough even in winter time. In addition, it is chilled if it is pouring into a napkin, it can absolutely absorb it.
Motor oil is not a panacea
Characteristics of GM-5W30 oil, this company General Motors, highlights its physical property as resistance to air penetration. Thanks to him, in this mm, even when contacting air, neither bubbles or foam will not be formed. This liquid reliably ensures the start of the car movement, and also protects its parts from oxidation.
However, if you need a repair of the engine (it rubs its details, at the same time extraneous sounds), then no mm (including engine oil GM-5W30) will not protect it. The sound can be either metal or whistling:
2. Metal sound:
- increased the gap between the crankshaft and semiring persistent, in connecting rod or indigenous bearings;
- wear of hydrocompensators;
- wear of gas distribution parts (sleeves, valves, camshaft parts);
- wear pistons in cylinders.
1. Whistling sound:
- bearing wear;
- belt wear generator drive.
Celebrations reviewers
When familiarizing with the Internet forums of motorists, it becomes noticeable that the GM 5W30 oil is well-deserved. Drivers about it testify: the replacement of it, on average, is practiced after 10 thousand km of the road. Fill it into engines for several years in a row, without changing the brand of oil, drivers mentioned in the above car list.
It is universally: they use motorists not only for servicing the gas distribution mechanism in its working cycle, but also as hydraulic fluid. It is enough fluid, retains its structure at high and low temperatures. Its film reliably protects the engine from corrosion, dirt, water.
About fakes
According to motorists, in relation to original oil from General Motors, there are approximately 50% of falsification. It is characteristic that during its operation in frosty weather, such a fake loses its work properties and thickens, acquiring the consistency of vaseline or even butter.
Last circumstance The driver can easily check, using a car dipper, immersed in similar imaginary oil GM 5W30. Price of it original option Inexpensive: 1800 - 2000 p. per canister 5l. Drivers choose it for a favorable price / quality ratio.
In addition, the synthetic viscosity oil is 5W30, despite a slight viscosity, has high working properties. The original GM-5W30 oil leaves precipitation on the engine, and does not freeze at low temperatures. Therefore, motorists must not be mixed, not to combine it with other oils to ensure the proper engine operation mode, it is recommended to monitor oil consumption.
High-quality engine oil provides a long-term operation of the automotive engine. Therefore, to the choice of lubricating liquid, motorists should be related to the relevant thoroughness. After all, when it has a hasty purchase from hands or in dubious outlets, drivers risk acquiring either a poor-quality product or a frank fake (counterfeit).
How not to make a mistake with the choice
Numerous car sites do not get tired to remind drivers about what has its own characteristic corporate engine oil GM-5W30. His car enthusiasts should be known. The main degrees of his differences from fake are familiar to drivers:
- hologram (GM inscription also turns over);
- neat seams;
- round seal with a logo of the company on the lid;
- cloves on the end cover;
- from the bottom of the package - the square pyramid in the style of 3D;
- inscription HDPE i.e. box processed;
- date of production on the box - minimum month;
- book with description.
For fake oil GM-5W30, unfortunately, occurs in traditional trade, and in online stores. Therefore, drivers are recommended to carefully examine the goods purchased. In addition to the above details, it is worth paying attention to the serial number of the canister.
If the original DEXOS2 modification engine is most often contained marking API. SN / CF (motorists are known that the SN prefix has been used since 2015), then the SM / CF API is often encountered (where there is an outdated SM prefix, which has been not used by General Motors in its labels).
Similar labels are the oil GM-5W30 DEXOS2.
The buyer should pay attention to the mutual contrast of the text and the background on the label canisters. The corporate identity does not involve halftones, fuzzy, print grains. The most characteristic feature of the truth of this product of the auto industry is its high-tech hologram. In the fakes instead there is a nomuddy silver sticker-freeze.
About oil refueling
On average, 3,5 liters are used for one refueling. This can be clearly traced using the scale located on the end side of the branded canister. However, if the driver immediately noticed the flashing of the red light bulb signaling the low oil in the engine, then it, as a rule, appeals to the technical center. There used corporate oil GM-5W30, spilled in 200 liter barrels. Just such a package, with the original factory labeling, use and official dealer centers. The obvious advantage of this oil produced in Russia is also its very worthy five-year shelf life.
According to statistics, an increasing number of motorists prefers to use GM-5W30 DEXOS2 oil for motors of their cars. However, after its operation, leaning the owners of cottages find it use.
The leaders of the older generation are in no hurry to pour it out, and carefully drain into empty cans. Spending dulls process wooden surfaces in contact with soil. They can also be lubricating chainsaws, as well as impregnate rags, which then effectively dried rodents.
Conclusion
Synthetic engine oil GM-5W30 is currently in the trend. Its characteristics are adapted for winter temperatures (up to -35 o C). This mm is characterized by moderate cost, resistant in a wide range of temperatures fluidity, the ability to clean the work of the engine. Wide range drivers car Marks Enjoy them for years.
An essential nuance in the use of GM-5W30 oil drivers is its acquisition. Unfortunately, this high-quality technological product is often forged. However, its factory packaging in branded cannors implies all necessary protection to choose.
The topic concerns owners to greater degree of warranty concern General Motors. Well, the owners of any other cars are the same.
What oil to use? The owners of the GMBS are not asked such a question, because in the instructions it is clearly written that it is necessary to pour oil with the DexOS2 tolerance. All GM dealers are friendly, as they conspired, pouring GM Dexos2 corporate oil without a question. All this is boring and uninteresting. It will be interesting if you begin to understand what "admission" means and that specifically means the tolerance of DEXOS2.
There is such an ACEA organization, or in another "Association of European Manufacturers". It includes European manufacturers of self-trade wagons, and American, Korean, and Japanese. In short, everything, or almost everything.
Within the framework of this association, some standards used now for motor oils were developed. For the beginning, categories A and I. This seemed to be a little, and the number of rooms, like A3, B3, B3 were invented, and so that the work looked like the completed, these letters and tsiferki designated the properties of various categories of oils. And it became boring, because All work was done. In order not to miss, once every two years, the requirements for oils of various categories were edited and clarified. As a result, another pair of numbers that denote the year were added to the beaks and cliquers. In short, the fact that in 2002 was A1-02 and B1-02, by 2008 it became A1 / B1-08.
In the end, such a category of oils were born, which were rather fluid and, moreover, during the combustion, left after themselves at a minimum of sulfate ash. Sulfate ash is what remains after the combustion of various metals, because the ash scores the sage filters diesel engines. There is still such an attack that soot and ash, it is absolutely not the same thing, but in general there are different things. Well, in general, called the category of these oils C3.
What is oil? Oil is primarily a hydrocarbon. Hydrocarbon during combustion gives carbon and water oxide. And if it burns badly, then gives South. But in order for a long time and happily to lubricate and cool the parts of the engine, a little hydrocarbon. To do this, thickeners, friction modifiers, anticoagulants are added to the oil ... As a result, these substances give us the very sulfate ash. Less substances are less ash. The poet should not make an oil that has ash will be 10 times less. Just this oil will be ten times worse to lubricate, worse cooling, quickly oxidize and breaks dirt. As a result, in these minorial oils of category C3 of this ash is not 10 times less, but only a third. But this is good for the particulate filter.
In short, ACEA has developed standards. If the oil producer releases a product corresponding to one of the categories of oils, it simply writes on it that the oil corresponds to the ACEA C and C3 standard and goes to sell. Consumers and manufacturers are good, and automakers have money through the fingers flow due to lack of opportunity to license. It is difficult to endure for a long time.
As a result, the automakers came up with their standards of oils almost immediately repeating standards ACEA.. Now for the possibility of placing admission you need to buy a license of an automaker.
So there are many tolerances and in particular DEXOS2. Immediately a shiny canister under the GM brand appeared. And now see what is written on it:
We see here the same tolerances acea., GM and parallel tolerances of some other ducts from ACEA.
How to get the DEXOS2 tolerance is officially written. If you briefly, you contact one of the four companies of the manufacturers of additive packages and buy from them ready decision. After that, pass the sample in the GM quality department and get the right to post the DEXOS2 trade sign on the packaging. From this point on, your products are allowed to use in almost all GM cars, including warranty.
Now an interesting moment. One of the manufacturers of additive packages provides the ability to play in a diagram of the comparative characteristics of oils of various tolerances. Well, I took and all tolerances with GM Dexos2 canisters scored and see what happened:
They have the parameters somewhere close, someone has something that coincides, someone has no. But all one parameter converges at one point - the neutralization of the exhaust. And if you add a C3 tolerance diagram, for example, Ford, then this parameter will be zero. Try playing yourself.
In general, oils corresponding to tolerances with GM oil canister combines with catalysts and diesel filters. Just do oil in catalysts and diesel filters with a healthy engine?
In general, it is worth noting that the GM statement that the DEXOS2 oil is ideal for all concern engines, smacks some tension. And 1.4 Turbobenzinka on Astra, and turbodiesel on the blazer. And there is also an OPC forced engines. And all this on one oil? And considering that many GM engines were produced earlier than the admission of DEXOS2 appeared, and some engines are purchased from third-party manufacturers, doubt the need for such a number of standards and tolerances, if almost half of the world's fleet is perfect is DEXOS2.
Let's go through the original sources.
First, on the page of the center "Quality", I will read this:
It turns out, oils under the trademark of DEXOS2 are designed for diesel engines, and for gasoline there is a brand of dexos oils. About how! BUT official dealers And do not know. Instructions for European cars are pointed. By the way, if you catch it up with a hose and contact the GM support center for oil, then you will be told that the DEXOS1 oils can be used in gasoline engines, but their quality is lower than those of DEXOS2.
Purely intuitive that oils for gasoline engines Solost's question should not stand, because There is no need to take care of the particulate filter in mind its absence. Well, it is also likely that the composition of substances falling into the oil during normal operation are somewhat different. This should affect the composition of "detergent" additives.
Well, okay, what to guess, you need to watch the original source. Again we climb on comparative properties charts:
Immediately striking fuel savings. Nothing amazing, it is easily achieved by a fat dose of friction modifiers, no one puts restrictions on ash. And there is also a difference in such a parameter as piston deposits (Piston deposits). Pay attention to the piston deposits is an important parameter for the manufacturer of the additive package, and probably for its customer.
What there is a joke. The deposits are deprived of the mobility compression and oil surgery rings. Compression falls, oil begins to flow into the chamber. Oil is on, enters exhaust system. After which you can already score on the ash content of the oil, and in place with him on dairy filter, Catalysts and is preparing for the repair of piston.
Where does such trouble come from? The oil in the crankcase is relatively cold - 100, 120 or 150 if in full soul pouring on the sports highway. On such oil temperatures do not care. Oil does not care for the temperature in the area of \u200b\u200bpiston rings. We have a gas-air mixture with a temperature for a thousand degrees on one side. Immediately the contents of the combustion chamber is replaced with cold air. The walls of the cylinder are cooled outside the graduate antifreeze, with the bottom of us the crater gases and oil nozzles jam on the piston.
The trouble is that these nozzles work when the engine speed is good for 2000. Actually, with low revs and antifreeze, we are not too smart circulating. But it is in the cork mode that is characterized by low revs and constant pidaling, with feeding of fatty portions of fuel. As a result, in the area of \u200b\u200bthe piston rings, the temperature can reach 300 degrees.
What happens with butter. Butter is a liquid. As for any other liquid, the oil has a fictional temperature, after which the oil begins to boil. Above boiling temperature liquid oil It is impossible to heat. The larger the ambient temperature, the more heat goes to boiling oil and the more intense the boiling process takes place. The temperature of the boiling oil does not change, because all the thermal energy goes to the process of vaporization. Only pressure can affect the boiling point of the oil. The higher the pressure, the higher the boiling point of the oil (actually. With any other liquid the same). Boiling point of oil at atmospheric pressure of about 280-300 degrees.
Then I will show how oils behave with the Dexos2 tolerance at high temperatures. I got 14 licensed samples. There are still samples that, according to the manufacturer, meet the requirements of DEXOS2, but in this case Samples are collected, possessing the official license. License can be checked.
The test passed as follows. A round flask on 250 cubes, half filled with oil. Put in a column heater. After about 15-20 minutes, the oil begins to boil. In the 30th minute I turn the flask, after which it all boils for another 30 minutes.

I also want to notice that deposits appeared after the first minutes of boiling oil. So do not think if you change the oil more often, the Bowl of Yiya is blowjob.
Well, the most important thing. It is necessary to clearly understand that the treated test speaks only how oil behaves at high temperatures. About how oil resists oxidation, as much as it is slippery, in the end, this test does not say. If when choosing an oil is guided only by the results of the trezhaars, the absolute leader in the test will be distilled water, and in second place with a small lag as it will be wash oil.
If you are not indifferent to the status of the engine of your new Opel, Chevrolet or Cadilak, then come with your oil

See two useful videos, About the oil General Motors 5W30 DEXOS2, below
The considered indicators play a key role for car owners, which, when choosing motor oil, are oriented, first of all, to save without loss of quality.
The main characteristics of GM DEXOS2 oil:
- Density working fluid (at 20 ° C) - 853 kg / cubic meters.
- High energy saving quality.
- Viscosity index - 146.
- Factors kinematic viscosity 66 and 11.2 square meters / s - at 40 and 100 ° C, respectively.
- The lower temperature limit in which the fluid freezes - - 36 ° C. If the frost is stronger, then there is a risk not to start the car.
- Upper temperature limit, in which oil ignition is possible - 222 ° C. According to this parameter, one can judge the low probability of a fire, because the engines are usually not heated to such a temperature.
- Excellent lubricating oils GM 5W30 guarantee stable work Motor and minimal wear of rubbing parts.
- The alkali parameter in the working fluid is 9.6 mg.
Scope of application
Product GM Dexos 2 Long Life. 5W-30 is a modern engine oil that is suitable for chevrolet cars, Cadillac, Opel and other machines, which are part of General Motors. Synthetic oil It is used on gasoline and diesel engines, including those having a turbine. The presence of additives in the composition is a guarantee of the long engine resource, as well as an enlarged lubricating fluid replacement interval.
In addition to the above mentioned grades, the GM 5W30 oil can be poured into the Alfeon, Byuche, Sports Karas and other cars into the engines. Also, the engine oil meets the requirements of Fiat, BMW, Volkswagen, Renault and even some military manufacturers.
Universality, the presence of a large number of additives, as well as adaptation under domestic conditions, makes DEXOS2 popular engine oil, among car owners from Russia and CIS countries. Practice has shown that the lubricating fluid manifests itself well, even when operating the car in bad roads, and in the case of filling low-quality gasoline. Even in such conditions, the GM 5W30 oil reliably protects the motor during the period of the entire service life.
Specifications of composition
DEXOS2 oils came to replace lubricating fluids to outdated standard - GM-LL-B025. At the same time, the GM 5W30 oil refers to the category of minorial oils aCEA class C3-08. The features should include the presence of an optimal HTHS, exceeding 3.5, as well as the presence of the following tolerances - BMW Longlife 04, MV 225.51 and 229.51, Volkswagen 505.00 and 505.01, GM-LL-A-025 and others.
Pros and cons composition
GM 5W30 oil boasts the following advantages:
- Increased aeration resistance. This characteristic indicates a low probability of air in the oil. Some GM motors with adjustable synchronization distribution ValaMotor oil is used, as a hydraulic working fluid. The appearance of air bubbles leads to a decrease in the efficiency and restriction of the motor operation.
- Reducing the risk of foam formation.
- Ensuring a reliable start of the engine and prevent the oxidation of parts. This feature is explained by the presence of a rich additive package
- Effective lubrication of engine elements, even with a cold start.
- Reducing the fuel consumption, if you compare similar parameters, in the case of the use of mineral oil.
- No deposits and scale. The use of DEXOS2 provides an effective heat removal from the driving elements of the motor and reducing the risk of its overheating.
- Neutralization of acids that are formed by igniting a combustible mixture.
- The formation of the oil film, which persists on the walls of the motor and ensures its wear protection, even in extreme operating conditions.
- Excellent thermal conductivity, which guarantees the rapid cooling of the crankshaft bearings, pistons and other engine elements.
- The exclusion of gas formation in space above the pistons, due to the improvement of the mobility of the piston rings.
- The possibility of use in machines having a catalyst.
- Universality. GM 5W30 oil refers to the premium category and is suitable for almost all types of motors.
- Compliance with modern international standards.
This engine oil has disadvantages. Despite the rich composition, the lubricant is not always capable, to fully protect the motor from friction and heating, which is especially characteristic of old engines. In addition, in the process of friction, hydrogen is formed, entering metal elements of the motor and destroying them.
The best testimony of the quality of GM 5W30 oil is positive reviews owners. The latter note a decrease in the volume of the motor operation, affordable price (If compared with other oils that have similar characteristics), as well as the absence of the need for frequent liquid topping. When buying original engine oil, you can be confident in the easy start of the engine, when frost, saving fuel and maintain the engine clean. Conversely, buying a non-original product can lead to problems with starting, in cold weather, the appearance of deposits in nozzles, and then the oil will need to change much more often.

How to distinguish fake motor opel oil GM Dexos 2 5W30. Step-by-step instruction With photos, comparison of counterfeit with the original.
In photographs, the correct four-liter canister 19 42 002 (left) and fake (right). The oil is very popular with Chevrolet car owners. Large sales are a priority factor influencing the desire of criminals to engage in his fake.
The first thing that forced to carefully learn an encouraging instance is not until the end of the twisted lid. As a result, a minor part of the contents left. The lid was spinning until it stops, but the backlash outside of 10-15 degrees remained. This product does not move at all.
By the way, Rosneft, the luft cover is a normal phenomenon.
Let us turn to a more detailed comparison of the canister. The label at the counterfeit that on the front side that the book on the rear, does not differ from the original, the hologram is present and overflows. The differences were not found. No any. He studied with a magnifying glass.
Which unambiguously issues a fake in the test sample is plastic. Traces from molding (triangle above the label) are strongly noticeable. This is a distinctive sign of almost all fakes with a similar shape of the Kanister: Nissan, Mazda.
Next photo. At the right sample sloppy seam between two halves. The same drawback is visible at the bottom of the canister, but not so clearly.
What else besides the bad seam should be alarming. Around the HDPE plastic recycling icon again shows traces from the shape. Instead of a square-pyramid with a hologram effect - the inscription PLYSU. Letters in the inscription reg des are thicker, as well as in the number of oil level. The ribs of stiffness in fake are fuzzy, rounded.
The following photo clearly seen the difference between the counterfeit from the original on the example of the quality of the surface of the plastic. At the counterfeit on the right shameless surface, with small shells.
A distinctive feature of the original canister is also the ability of plastic to change the color shade with yellowish to gray with different angle of inclination. When looking at the bottom at an angle, the upper half has a yellow shade. This feature of the counterfeit material or is lacking or almost not noticeable.
Measuring risks and numbers should be not rounded, and flare, flatter.
And for a snack. The thickness of the plastic is not like that of the present. Especially pushed the angles. They literally shine. At all, a non-mile pressing leaves a dent in the corner that cannot be straightened.
It should be noted that on sale there is a dexcine production LUKOIL (numbers 95599403 1l., 95599404 4l., 95599405 5l.) And it has another design. Rear is not a book, but an ordinary sticker. The code is embossed, the principle of application is the same as on Lukoil Suite.
Facial face with the inscription Made in Russia. The rest of the difference is minimal.
General Motors oil has good demand and constant purchasing interest, which means the increased interest of underground counterfeit manufacturers. Share fakes this oil Great, almost 50 to 50. The chance to buy a fake is very great to make sure to authenticate the oil acquired, use the photo by the instructions of the fake oil from the original.
Lid and differences between oil produced in Europe and Russia
Labels + hologram
Party number and the production date of the canister are applied on the front side of the label and on the back of the canister.
Doto canister
The original seam at the bottom, as in the whole canister is smooth, without influx. Symbols are smooth and clear. In fakes of the seam curve, the drawing is distorted. Symbols "dance".
From above - original. Bottom - fake. Plastic on fake low-quality canisters, if you press the corners on such a canister, they are easily pushed and remain apart. The original canister is cast from high-quality plastic, deformation in mechanical effects are excluded.
