Shell Rimula R5 LM oils feature "Low-SAPS" additive technology. Its protective power improves the oil's performance to deliver responsive protection, resulting in maintenance savings and long oil drain capability
Applications
European high-capacity enginesShell Rimula R5 LM provides protection and performance for high-output diesel engines from the major European engine manufacturers, such as Mercedes-Benz, and where oils meeting ACEA E6 are required.
Use in emission-controlled enginesShell Rimula R5 LM meets the Mercedes-Benz requirements for modern engine applications.
Performance & benefits
Emissions system capabilityThe advanced low-ash formulation helps prevent the blocking or poisoning of exhaust after-treatment devices, helping the vehicle maintain emissions compliance and fuel efficiency.
Reduced maintenance costsShell Rimula R5 LM has been formulated to meet the extended oil drain interval requirements of Mercedes-Benz, allowing operators to optimise their maintenance planning.
Improves engine cleanlinessThe advanced formulation provides good engine cleanliness and protection against piston deposits, allowing Shell Rimula R5 LM oil to ensure engine component reliability and extended oil drain intervals.
Standards & approvals
ACEA E6
ACEA E6 oil sequence
ACEA's sequence for heavy-duty diesel engines with full exhaust aftertreatment. A low-SAPS level, ash capped to protect the particulate filter, at extended drain intervals. One of ACEA's current sequences.Source
