Complete documentation

Manufacturer's description

Advanced Performance Heavy Duty Diesel Engine Oil. Shell Rimula R5 LE oils feature "Low-SAPS" additive technology while delivering energy savings. Protective power is enhanced through the use of advanced base oils to deliver fuel economy performance with no compromise in durability. The SAE 10W-30 grade has a kinematic viscosity of 81.8 mm²/s at 40 °C and 12.1 mm²/s at 100 °C, a viscosity index of 141 and a pour point of -43 °C. Its data sheet lists DAF PSQL 2.1E.

Applications

  • European heavy duty enginesShell Rimula R5 LE provides protection and performance in modern high power heavy-duty diesel engines from leading European engine makers such as Mercedes-Benz and MAN and where oils meeting ACEA E11 are called for.
  • Low emission engine useShell Rimula R5 LE meets the requirements of the major European and North American engine manufacturers for low emission applications.

Performance & benefits

  • Emissions system capabilityAdvanced low-ash formulation helps control the blocking or poisoning of exhaust after-treatment devices, helping maintain vehicle emission compliance and engine fuel efficiency.
  • Fuel economy capabilityThe use of advanced base oil components provides Shell Rimula R5 LE with the capability to improve cold starting and reduce fuel consumption and save money, without compromising engine protection or durability.
  • Improved engine cleanlinessThe advanced formulation delivers good engine cleanliness and protection against piston deposits allowing Shell Rimula R5 LE to ensure engine and component reliability at extended oil drain intervals.
