Shell Rimula diesel-engine oil approved for MAN Euro 626 February 2014

MAN has become the latest truck manufacturer to approve Shell Rimula R6 LME heavy-duty diesel engine oil for use in its Euro 6 engines, joining other OEMs such as Mercedes-Benz and Volvo.

Shell Rimula R6 LME is a 5W-30 viscosity grade oil, designed to deliver additional fuel economy benefits. Shell says the product delivers up to 2% fuel saving, compared with a typical 10W-40 oil.

The lubricant combines synthetic base oil technology, advanced additive technology and an anti-wear booster system.

These three elements combine to help deliver strong performance, longer drain intervals and fuel saving, without compromising durability, according to the company.

Rimula R6 LME also contains less ash and sulphur to help control diesel particulate filter (DPF) blocking.
