Shell Helix HX7 AG 5W-30

Application:

Shell Helix HX7 AG 5W-30 is a synthetic technology engine oil formulated specifically to meet the needs of Opel and Vauxhall gasoline and diesel engines. It is approved by these manufacturers for both normal and extended oil drain intervals. The oil incorporates Shell’s special active cleansing technology that continuously prevents sludge and dirt build-up, maintaining responsiveness and engine efficiency up to the next oil change.

Performance Features & Benefits:

• OEM-Specific Design: Meets the requirements of General Motors specifications GM LL-A-025 and GM LL-B-025, equivalent to Opel B-040-2095 and B-040-2098.
• Special Active Cleansing Technology: Twice as effective at removing sludge from dirty engines compared to mineral oil.
• Low Evaporation Loss: Reduces oil volatility, thereby lowering oil consumption and reducing the need for top-ups.
• Enhanced Oxidation Stability: Provides up to 19% more protection than other leading synthetic technology oils tested.
• Fuel Efficiency: Low viscosity and low friction characteristics promote greater fuel economy.
• High Shear Stability: Maintains viscosity and stays in grade throughout the full oil-drain period.
• Engine Smoothness: Minimizes engine vibration and noise for a quieter drive.
• Environmental Consideration: Contains low levels of sulphur and chlorine for better environmental protection and easier disposal.
• Optimized Aeration Control: Enhances hydraulic system operation.

Main Application Areas:

• Most Opel and Vauxhall gasoline and diesel engines
• Passenger vehicles requiring GM-LL-A-025 or GM-LL-B-025 performance oils
