Application:

Shell Rimula R6 M 10W-40 is a fully synthetic heavy-duty diesel engine oil formulated with multifunctional additive technology to protect modern Euro IV and Euro V engines without diesel particulate filters (DPF). With a high-performance base oil system and optimized soot-handling capability, it ensures long engine life, fuel economy, and extended maintenance intervals for high-output fleet vehicles operating under demanding conditions.

Performance Features & Benefits:

  • Extended Drain Capability: Meets long oil drain requirements for major OEMs including Mercedes-Benz, MAN, DAF, and Volvo.
  • Engine Cleanliness: Advanced detergents maintain piston and ring cleanliness to prevent deposits and sludge build-up.
  • Wear Protection: Excellent wear control under high-stress conditions extends engine life by minimizing bore polish and valve train wear.
  • Fuel Efficiency: Synthetic base oils contribute to reduced internal friction and improved fuel economy compared to high-viscosity oils.
  • Broad Compatibility: Suitable for a wide range of Euro 2–5 engines across European, American, and Japanese manufacturers.

Main Application Areas:

  • Heavy-duty on-highway trucks and logistics fleets
  • Euro IV and V engines without diesel particulate filters (DPF)
  • Engines from Mercedes-Benz, MAN, Volvo, Renault, DAF, Deutz, Iveco, Cummins, and Mack

Usage Instructions:

  • Follow manufacturer-recommended oil drain intervals and compatibility guidelines.
  • Not suitable for engines with DPF systems — for those, use Shell Rimula R6 LM/LME.
  • Not recommended for Caterpillar engines.

Environmental & Safety Information:

  • Use protective gloves when handling used oil. Wash skin thoroughly after contact.
  • Dispose of used oil responsibly through authorized collection facilities.
  • Safety Data Sheet (SDS) available via inquiry
