Manufacturer's description
Shell Helix HX5 is formulated using cleansing technology. It protects better than conventional engine oils by continuously removing engine deposits and reducing engine noise.
Applications
- Gasoline and diesel enginesSuitable for injection gasoline engines fitted with blow-by gas recirculation. It is also suitable for turbocharged or naturally aspirated indirect-injection diesel engines fitted with blow-by gas recirculation.
Performance & benefits
- Formulated with cleansing technologyUp to 23% more effective at removing engine deposits than an ordinary mineral oil.
- Good oxidation stabilityResists oil degradation throughout the drain interval.
- High-quality base oilsHelp reduce oil volatility and therefore oil consumption.
- Minimises engine vibration and noiseQuieter vehicle operation.
