The tests were performed on three vehicles were taken from the market by TÜV/SûD Automotive GmbH and were handled only by TÜV/SûD Automotive GmbH staff during the complete project phase. All vehicles were pre-checked prior to the project start regarding general condition, exhaust system, error memory, air filter, oil, service check book etc., including test run. The modifications were conducted according to the instruction manuals. Additional tests regarding other effects, such as material compatibility or long-term effects were not subject to this project.
All measurements were performed in TÜV SÜD Automotive GmbH emission test center in Heimsheim, Germany, according to relevant European emission test regulations.
All endurance tests were carried out on the street in a mix of urban, extra-urban and Autobahn-cycles.
The key results of the TÜV SÜD Test on RVS impact in fuel consumption and emissions were as follows:
A dyno test of a 2009 BMW 328i 6AT with 111k miles. The car was treated with two RVS G8 engine treatments (available on the U.S. market) and results were documented before and after on a dynamometer measuring power and torque at the rear wheels. Great gains were made throughout the rev range with especially the midrange torque being greatly improved.
Ruhr University in Bochum, carried out a Grey Stain test (Comparison RVS/without RVS) with outstanding results:
In July 2004 shipping company Bockstiegel from Emden placed the order to treat the vessel BBC Sealand, which has the problem of huge oil consumption caused by cylinder coking. The motor of the Sealand, a 4235kW MAN B&W seven cylinder 4 stroke motor has been treated during sailing from Dampier (Australia) to Jakarta (Indonesia) from 08/11/2004 to 08/15/2004 with the RVSNanocoating.
The test resulted to average compression reducement of 40% and oil consumption reducement of 30% per day.

Summary and translation of the RVS Technology test-article
Two vehicles were tested:
Ford Transit 2.5 D (Diesel) Van, 1992, mileage 278,000 km and Mitsubishi Pajero 2.8 D (Diesel), 4x4, 1998, mileage 140,000 km. In both cars the Power Steering, Engines, Gearboxes and Rear Axels (differential) got the RVS treatment. In the Pajero also the Front Differential and Splitter Gear were treated.
“The conclusion is that there is no doubt about that RVS Technology has very positive effect to the noise and I will add RVS at each oil change.”
The noise level of the wind turbine gearbox dropped from 97.2 dB to 85.3 dB after RVS Technology treatment, which in practice means that the noise level has more than halved.
The owner: "It is as if the engine had gone through another chip tuning." The power output increased by 18.6 HP (15.3%) and the Torque by 20.6 Nm (7,3 %). The average blow-by decreased by 2-4% and the fuel consumption by 2-3 %.
The car was/is a previous Taxi that had clocked 400,000 km (250,000 miles) and had been chip tuned 1,5 years ago. The engine had shown a slow but unavoidable power loss before the RVS treatment.
The observed results of the RVS Technology treatment:
1. The metallic engine noise disappeared in about 30 min after the RVS treatment.
2. The engine starts now without manual handwork and extra "start-gasoline".
3. The engine doesn't produce smoke at the start-up anymore.
4. The "Metal Gear" sounds of the gearbox softened within 16 hours after the treatment.
5. The oil temperature dropped by 10% within the 22-hour period.

CONCLUSIONS
Tests were carried out, at the Premises of the Company ELEKTRO-MASCHINENBAU Bogner GmbH & Co. KG in Germany, 20-24.12.2003. The goal was to examine the temperature and current behaviour of 4 worm-geared engines without gear oil at nominal load to determine the emergency operating features of the engines. It observes the difference between 2 engines, which have been treated with RVS Technology Gel and 2 untreated engine,
The test results clearly show that the RVS Technology Gel had a significant effect on the treated geared engines. The surfaces of the gears are coated so as to achieve a
significantly higher stability. Although a steel/brass friction combination does not result in the optimal characteristics of the RVS Technology Gel, the temperature differences up to
54 °C (-61%) and current differences up to 2.0 A (-65%), are evident.
The surface of the gear teeth indicates very strong seizing marks and very high bearing temperatures (annealing colours) in the untreated engines (Engine 3). There are absolutely no signs of wear on engines treated with RVS Technology (Engine 1).
In conclusion it can be stated that the RVS Technology Gel is well suited to coat frictional metal surfaces and thus protect them against wear, reduce friction and significantly increase service life.
The tests showed excellent emergency operating features of treated gears. In fact, since this is not a real case of operating, the coating on the gear teeth may result in significantly longer lifetimes (2-fold), potential savings of oil changes and even the use of cheaper material.
RVS took part in 2004 to this EU-funded research program in Munich, Germany. Please read the highlights from the results and the Official Final Report from June 2004 below:
The results are shown in Figure 6: The uncoated discs failed within the first 7 minutes, the discs run with the RVS® Technology substance failed after ca.15 minutes. Thus the lifetime of these discs was more than double as high as the lifetime of the uncoated discs (page 46).
After the test traces of silicum could be detected on the surface. The roughness also decreased from Ra = 0.2 µm before the test to Ra = 0.05 µm after the test (page 57). The original grinding texture perpendicular to the circumferential speed wasn't visible anymore.
The conclusion from these tests with the RVS Technology substance is, that at a coating building run at boundary lubrication has a positive impact on the life-time under dry lubrication. The disc roughness decreased and traces of silicium could be detected after this coating building run. However, it was not possible to detect a coating in a metallographic section of the disc surface (page 57).
