Purpose and Specifications

Shell Helix HX7 10W40 1L is a semi-synthetic engine oil that keeps your engine clean and protects it from wear for longer life. Its 10W-40 viscosity flows easily in cold starts down to -25°C and stays thick up to 150°C in hot conditions, perfect for year-round driving in gasoline, diesel, or gas engines.

Advanced active cleansing technology locks away sludge and deposits, reducing engine noise and vibration for smoother rides. It cuts fuel use with low friction and stable viscosity, meaning less oil top-up between changes.

When to Use / Replace?

Use this oil in modern cars under demanding traffic, turbo engines, or mixed city/highway driving. Ideal for temps from -25°C to over 40°C. Replace every 10,000-15,000 km or 12 months for best protection; its longevity allows extended intervals over basic oils.

Shelf life is 5 years unopened in cool, dry storage.
