DESCRIPTION
Fully synthetic motor oil
Shell's ultimate protection for vehicle emission systems Shell Helix Ultra ECT C2/C3 features its most advanced emissions-compatible technology that helps to keep diesel particulate filters clean to help maintain engine performance.
It helps to reduce engine friction to provide enhanced fuel economy
APPLICATIONS
- Shell Helix Ultra ECT C2/C3's fully synthetic formulation uses Shell's most advanced emissions-compatible technology to help gasoline engine exhaust catalysts and keep diesel particulate filters clean and protects it from ash build-up that can black the exhaust system and lead to reduced engine performance.
- Shell Helix Ultra ECT C2/C3 can be used for modern gasoline engines, diesel engines with particulate filters and gas engines.
FEATURES & BENEFITS
- Shell's most advanced emissions-compatible technology for low-SAPS oil Protects emission system by helping to keep diesel particulate filters clean.
- Shell's ultimate active cleansing technology
Helps to protect high-performance engines from power and performance-robbing deposits. - Unsurpassed sludge protection
No other motor oil can keep your engine closer to factory clean (1) - Superior wear protection
Up to 4x better than API SN specification (2)
Up to 50% better than ACEA C2/C3 requires (3) - Developed with special antioxidants
Helps to provide excellent oxidation protection throughout the oil-drain interval. - Low viscosity and low friction
Up to 2.6% greater fuel economy (4) - Superior piston cleanliness
Up to 45% cleaner than ACEA C2/C3 requires (5).
Exceeds the requirements of API SN specification (6). - Superior corrosion protection
Up to 3x better corrosion protection than required by API SN (7) - Superior intake valve cleanliness
Exceeds the requirements for VW based on VW FSI test (8) - Exceptional low-temperature performance
- Faster oil flow for quicker engine warm-up (9)
- High resistance to mechanical stress
Maintains viscosity and stays in grade throughout the oil change interval. - Low evaporation formulation
Low oil consumption for less frequent top-up.
