The extensive range of Shell Rimula heavy-duty diesel engine oils meets all technical and operational needs of transport equipment operators. Shell scientists have even found ways to design specific protection levels to meet particular engine and operating conditions. Our technology provides protection in three critical areas: • Acid control Protects against corrosion from the acids formed as fuel burns. • Deposit control Keeps the engine clean for optimum performance and long life. • Wear control Keeps the moving metal surfaces apart for longer engine life. This means you can be sure your engine will be protected no matter how hot, cold, steep, dusty or muddy things get. 3 Introducing our hardest working engine oil – Shell Rimula R6 LME. New and Improved Shell Rimula R6 LME, the latest member of the Shell Rimula family of heavy-duty diesel engine oils, continues our commitment to providing innovative technology solutions. Developed to benefit today’s engines, it also meets requirements of the engines of the future – Euro 6 vehicle technologies. After extensive testing, Shell has been selected as First Fill Oil supplier for Daimler’s new generation of engines. New and Improved Shell Rimula R6 LME is proven to reduce overall cost of fleet ownership through a number of key benefits: • Lowering fuel usage Independently proven to improve fuel economy by up to 2%.* • Helping to control emissions Low sulphur and phosphorus for catalyst compatibility. Low ash for less exhaust particulate filter blocking. • Extending oil-drain intervals and wasting less oil Approved for extended drain intervals by leading equipment manufacturers. • Improving engine wear protection and pistol cleanliness Unique anti-wear booster for enhanced durability. Case study Daimler’s Record Run 2011 was a trial that was set up to test the fuel efficiency of its latest trucks, the Actros Euro 5, the Actros Euro 6 and the Actros. The trucks travelled from Rotterdam, the Netherlands, to Szczecin, Poland and back no less than seven times. Using Shell Rimula R6 LME and Shell FuelSave Diesel together the Actros Euro 5 achieved fuel savings of 7.6%. The Actros Euro 6 achieved fuel savings of 4.5%, compared with the Actros.

Shell Rimula R6 LME has been developed with unique technology to adapt both chemically and physically to meet the changing needs of your engines. Offering more than just reliable lubrication, Shell Rimula R6 LME uses a unique three-fold approach to protection: • Synthetic base-oil technology. • Unique additive technology. • Exclusive anti-wear booster system. These unique properties work together to deliver outstanding performance, longer drain intervals and fuel saving benefits without compromising durability. Shell Rimula R6 LME provides even greater protection against wear and deposits than previous-generation oils (e.g. ACEA E4/MB 228.51 oils), and the low-SAPS formulation protects the exhaust system catalysts and filters found on the latest vehicles. Less friction, Better fuel economy. Shell Rimula R6 LME can make a positive contribution to the fuel consumption of your vehicles and the costs of your business. Whether you own a single truck or a whole fleet of trucks or buses, you will be aware that reducing fuel consumption is a key concern for all fleet operators. But, maybe you’re not aware that lubricants can be an important factor in improving fuel economy. Lubricants are critical to the effective operation and longevity of almost all engine parts. Lower viscosity lubricants can also help to lower fuel consumption by reducing the energy loss caused by friction. Case study In trials carried out with a fleet of trucks operating for Wm Morrison Supermarkets, the customer confirmed that Shell Rimula R6 LME realised up to 2% fuel savings over 100,000km oil-drain intervals compared with a typical 10W-40 oil. Engine inspection showed that the condition of the components was excellent, with no visible wear or deposits after 100,000km. Another trial ran by Shell at the independent automotive testing facility ATP (Automotive Testing Papenburg) in Germany, demonstrated the fuel-economy benefits of its top-tier driveline oils (Shell Rimula R6 LME, Shell Spirax S6 GXME and Shell Spirax S6 AXME) compared with its baseline products (Shell Rimula R4 L, Shell Spirax S1 G and Shell Spirax S2). Shell Rimula R6 LME 5W-30 also demonstrated fuel savings compared with a traditional high-ash SAE 10W-40 oil in a real-life driving cycle (a city bus route in Graz, Austria) in a Euro 5 SCR Mercedes-Benz Citaro bus.

Managing exhaust emissions is important not only to comply with legislative requirements but also to ensure efficient operations. When lubricants are burned, ash (residue that comes from the additives used to fight acids and wear) can block an exhaust filter. Blocked diesel particulate filters (DPF) can actually increase fuel consumption. Shell Rimula R6 LME low-ash additive system is designed to control filter blocking and maintain excellent control of wear and deposits.

These work together to deliver outstanding performance, long drain intervals and fuel saving ability without compromising durability. Shell Rimula R6 LME provides even greater protection against wear and deposits than previousgeneration oils (e.g., ACEA E4/MB 228.5 oils), and the lowSAPS formulation protects the exhaust system catalysts and filters found on the latest vehicles. Less engine wear, More life. Good engine durability is essential to minimise unplanned downtime and maximise engine life. YOUR PROTECTION – OUR EXPERIENCE Developed by our scientists, the anti-wear booster provides extra protection against wear in highly Developedareas by our of technologists, the anti-wear booster provides extra stressed the engine. protection against wear in highly stressed areas of the engine. Hot spots form when lubrication breaks down. An anti-wear booster enhances the protective power of the oil. MISSIONS VALS AND Shell Rimula R6 LME has special molecules that resist compression to keep moving parts separated and reduce wear. New and improved Shell Rimula R6 LME delivers exceptional wear protection in the latest engines and has been tested to ensure longer engine life. 7 8 Longer oil drain intervals, Cleaner pistons. Many engine manufacturers, including Daimler, assess the optimum drain interval of oil on its performance using piston cleanliness as a key performance parameter. The new and improved formulation for Shell Rimula R6 LME delivers outstanding piston cleanliness throughout the oil maintenance interval. Shell also run a joint trial including engine inspection with Daimler in South Africa. Shell Rimula R6 LME had achieved a new extended engine life target of 1.5 million km with the longest-ever ODI (Oil Drain Interval). Case study Austrian haulage company FRIKUS has changed to Shell Rimula R6 LME in its trucks. As a result, the company has: • • Doubled its oil-drain interval from 40,000 to 80,000km and thereby reduced its lubricant consumption and maintenance costs. Reported a total annual saving of US$189,000.* For more information complete case studies available upon request. *The savings indicated are specific to the calculation date and mentioned site. These calculations may vary from site to site and from time to time, depending on, for example, the application, the operating conditions, the current products being used, the condition of the equipment and the maintenance practices. 9 Cleaner for longer. Approved for long-drain-interval application by Mercedes-Benz and others, Shell Rimula R6 LME exceeded the piston cleanliness of Daimler’s most demanding limits by 56% in the MB OM 501 LA engine test.
