Manufacturer's description

Fully synthetic motor oil - Shell's most advanced formulation for high performance engines Shell Helix Ultra ECT features its most advanced emissions-compatible technology that helps to keep gasoline and 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'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 protect it from ash build-up that can block the exhaust system and lead to reduced engine performance.
  • It is suitable for direct injection turbocharged gasoline engines where protection against low-speed pre-ignition (LSPI) is required.

Performance & benefits

  • Shell's ultimate active cleaning technologyHelps to protect high-performance engines from power and performance-robbing deposits.
  • Low viscosity and low frictionProvides up to 4.0% greater fuel economy. 1
  • Helps to extend engine life by protecting surfaces from wear and by helping to neutralise combustion acids. On average 51% better wear protection and up to 58% better corrosion protection than API SP limits 2. Low-evaporation formulation 3
  • Low oil consumption for less frequent top-up. Shell Helix Ultra ECT C6 0W-20 with PurePlus Technology provides exceptional sludge control and excellent turbocharger protection. 4
  • Protects against low-speed pre-ignition (LSPI) in direct injection turbocharged gasoline engines. 5
  • Multi-fuel capabilityCan be used for gasoline, diesel and gas engines, and is also suitable for biodiesel and gasoline/ethanol blends. 1 Based on API Sequence VIE engine test result compared with the industry reference oil. 2 Based on API Sequence IVB engine and VIII test results compared with API SP specification. 3 Base in NOACK volatility test and equipment manufacturers' requirements. 4 Based on ACEA M271EVO, Toyota 1KD-FTV and EP6CDT engine test results compared with ACEA C6 specification. 5 Based on Sequence IX LSPI test compared with ACEA C6 specification.
  • Superior wear and corrosion protection Helps to extend engine life by protecting surfaces from wear and by helping to neutralise combustion acids. On average 51% better wear protection and up to 58% better corrosion protection than API SP limits 2
  • Low-evaporation formulation 3 Low oil consumption for less frequent top-up
  • Shell Helix Ultra ECT C6 0W-20 with PurePlus Technology provides exceptional sludge control and excellent 4 turbocharger protection
