Manufacturer's description
Synthetic technology motor oil - Helps to protect against sludge and wear. Shell Helix HX6 is an advanced formulation that enhances engine performance by helping to protect against engine sludge build-up and wear. It is suitable for a wide variety of vehicles for everyday driving conditions.
Applications
- Shell Helix HX6 helps to prolong the engine life of modern vehicles in demanding daily driving conditions by protecting against wear. Shell Helix HX6 can be used for gasoline, diesel and gas engines, and it is also suitable for biodiesel and gasoline/ethanol blends.
- It is also suitable for use in modern direct injection turbocharged gasoline engines where it provides protection against damaging low-speed pre-ignition (LSPI).
Performance & benefits
- Active cleansing technologyActively locks away harmful performance-robbing deposits.
- Protects against damaging low-speed pre-ignition (LSPI) in modern turbocharged direct injection gasoline engines 1 Effective wear protection 2
- Helps to extend engine life by protecting against wear.
- Helps to maintain protection throughout the oil-drain interval. Low-evaporation formulation 3
- Low oil consumption for less frequent top-up.
- Multi-fuel capabilityCan be used for gasoline, diesel and gas engines, and is also suitable for biodiesel and gasoline/ethanol blends. 1 Based on Seq IX industry standard test. 2 Based on Sequence IVA engine test carried out at an independent laboratory. 3 Based on NOACK volatility test and equipment manufacturers’ requirements.
- Low-speed pre-ignition protection Protects against damaging low-speed pre-ignition (LSPI) in modern turbocharged direct injection gasoline engines 1
- Effective wear protection 2 Helps to extend engine life by protecting against wear
- Resistance to oil degradation Helps to maintain protection throughout the oil-drain interval
- Low-evaporation formulation 3 Low oil consumption for less frequent top-up
