Complete documentation

Manufacturer's description

Fully synthetic oil for high-capacity diesel engines. Shell Rimula Ultra offers exclusive "Low-SAPS" additive technology and a unique anti-wear system. Its protective power is further strengthened by the use of synthetic base oil technology, which delivers extended drain intervals and fuel economy. Particularly suitable for Euro 4, 5 and 6 vehicles.

Applications

  • On-highway heavy duty applicationsParticularly suited to a wide range of heavy duty vehicles and transport applications with emission-controlled engines. It is especially suitable for truck fleets running mixed Euro 4, 5 and Euro 6 engines. Specifications, approvals and recommendations

Performance & benefits

  • Fuel economy: through the use of Shell's most advanced technology, offers enhanced fuel-economy capability* without compromising engine protection or durability (*e.g. compared with high-viscosity oils such as SAE 15W-40, SAE 10W-40 and SAE 10W-30).
  • Maintenance saving: meets the extended oil-drain-interval requirements, from the latest Euro 6 to older-generation engines, allowing operators to optimise maintenance planning and control maintenance costs.
  • Emissions-system compatibility: the advanced low-ash formulation helps prevent blockage or contamination of exhaust after-treatment systems, helping maintain vehicle emissions compliance and fuel efficiency.
  • Low wear, low deposits: unique additive technology delivers high standards of piston cleanliness, essential for extending engine life.
