Purpose and Specifications

Shell Helix Ultra 5W-30 1L is a premium fully synthetic engine oil that delivers maximum cleansing and protection for high-performance engines. It actively locks away dirt and sludge, keeping pistons clean and reducing wear by up to 30% compared to standard oils, so your engine runs smoother and lasts longer.

This oil flows quickly in cold starts down to -30°C for reliable ignition in winter, while staying thick up to 150°C in hot conditions or high-rev driving. Approved for BMW LL-01, Mercedes 229.5, VW 502.00/505.00, and Renault RN0700/RN0710, it's ideal for turbocharged, direct-injection, and modern diesel engines with particulate filters.
