Application:

Shell Helix Ultra 5W-30 is Shell’s most advanced fully synthetic motor oil, engineered to meet the demands of modern high-performance gasoline and diesel engines (without diesel particulate filters). Its formulation, featuring Shell’s unique active cleansing technology, actively protects against sludge, reduces friction for improved fuel economy, and ensures maximum protection under high-stress driving conditions, including extreme heat and cold.

Performance Features & Benefits:

  • Ultimate Active Cleansing Technology: Helps keep engines clean by preventing sludge and deposit build-up that can impair performance.
  • Superior Wear and Corrosion Protection: Extends engine life by protecting against wear and neutralizing corrosive combustion acids (proven in Sequence IVA and VIII tests).
  • Fuel Efficiency: Up to 1.4% better fuel economy compared to industry reference oils (ACEA M 111 test).
  • Active Sludge Removal: Cleans up sludge left by inferior oils, as confirmed by severe test protocols.
  • Stability and Longevity: Resists oil degradation to maintain performance throughout oil-drain intervals (Sequence IIIG tested).
  • Low-Evaporation Formulation: Minimizes oil consumption, reducing the need for top-ups (NOACK volatility tested).
  • Cold Temperature Performance: Ensures faster oil flow during cold starts for reduced wear (ASTM D5293 tested).
  • Multi-Fuel Compatibility: Suitable for gasoline, diesel (non-DPF), gas engines, and blends like biodiesel and gasoline/ethanol.
  • OEM Approved: Trusted by manufacturers including BMW, Mercedes-Benz, VW, and Renault.

Main Application Areas:

  • Modern gasoline engines
  • Diesel engines not equipped with particulate filters
  • Gas-powered vehicles
  • Vehicles operating in extremely hot or cold climates or under high-performance conditions
  • Engines using alternative fuels such as biodiesel or ethanol/gasoline blends

Usage Instructions:

  • Use in vehicles that require performance standards such as API SN or ACEA A3/B4.
  • Refer to manufacturer recommendations for oil-drain intervals and service classifications.
  • Compatible with OEM specs from BMW, VW, Renault, and Mercedes-Benz listed below.

Environmental & Safety Information:

  • Shell Helix Ultra is not expected to pose health risks when used properly and with good personal hygiene practices.
  • Wear gloves when handling used oil. Wash skin thoroughly after contact.
  • Never pour used oil into drains or the environment—dispose of it at authorised collection points.
  • Safety Data Sheet (SDS) available via inquiry.
