Strong oxidation resistance in the new Volvo T-13 test, controls harmful acid build up, and easily exceeds the API CK-4 limits for oxidation and viscosity increase.
Better cold cranking properties and low temperature pumpability at -15°C
Improved copper corrosion protection and lead corrosion protection, with an average of 50% more wear protection than required by API industry wear tests.
Improved oxidation resistance helps prevent deposits in the engine, maintain cleanliness, and prevent acid buildup, which can cause corrosive wear in the engine.
Excellent oil consumption control, through lower oil volatility in the Noack test compared to conventional Shell Rotella® T4 15W-40. Lower Volatility = Lower Oil Consumption.
