Description of Helix HX8 Synthetic 5W-40

Shell Helix HX8 Synthetic 5W-40 engine oil is a high quality product suitable for use in a variety of modern vehicle engines. This oil has an optimal viscosity, which corresponds to the SAE 5W-40 class, which allows for reliable engine operation over a wide temperature range. One of the key characteristics of the oil is its synthetic origin. Thanks to the use of high-quality base oils and special additives, this oil provides a high level of engine protection against wear and corrosion, and also increases its service life. It should also be noted that this oil is suitable for use with various types of fuel, including gasoline, diesel and gas. This oil is designed for use in engines operating under heavy loads such as city driving or long distance driving. In addition, this oil has a high viscosity index, which provides better engine protection when operating at low temperatures. This oil also has low fluidity at high temperatures, which helps to reduce energy losses and increase engine efficiency. The oil complies with the requirements of international standards and is recommended for use in cars of such brands as Fiat, Renault, Mercedes-Benz, Volkswagen and other European cars.

Type of review

The drop gleams in green, the letter f is not crossed out, the seams are stuck, the lid is flat (not convex), the font is like the original, the measuring scale does not come out above the norm, the original is on the right of the photo! I ordered 2 Containers, I got a share of each 2200. It seems like both are original, compared with 100% original.

Pros
  • Like the original
Cons
  • No

Just super, the product is made wonderfully, very satisfied.

I have the remains of an old can of the same oil. I don’t know how to make a comparison correctly, but I did it as best I could, don’t blame me as best I could. There are no differences in color, in smell this oil smells more like oil, my old oil may have run out of steam, this is where the differences end. If you have any ideas how to check, please send to mimosaa@. ru Comparison photo is attached. Signed "Nov" and "Star" There is also a difference in the rigidity of the can itself, tk. the…

Great product, a pleasure to use.

I ordered for the next one, before that I poured a liquid mole top tech. The oil cleans the engine well. The original came, the code on the site beats on both containers.

I am amazed at how well made the product is, just magical!

Excellent oil. Original. Filled in Tiguan (2022, TSI 2.0). Previously, I already went to this one, everything suited me, but after last year's price hike, I tried Lukoil Armortech. It seems that all the rules and the manufacturer is actually the same, but the engine runs softer on Shell.

The product is okay, it's not a waste of money!

I ordered 4 liters and it came, it was packed perfectly and the whole canister. So far I liked it, I would like to check this oil. I have already driven about 7 thousand on this oil, the flight is normal.

Cons
  • Have not found

Great value for the money, definitely recommended!

The oil has arrived, the date of manufacture is August 22, the country of manufacture is Türkiye. The canister corresponds to the original, there is no sticker with a verification code on the lid. There is a double sticker on the back of the canister, the first layer with a description of the oil is peeled off, under it the second layer with inscriptions about shell representations in different countries, 2022 is not on the list. Something like this. The next day, the seller sent a copy of the…

Pros
  • shell brand oil
Cons
  • Operation will show

A really necessary purchase, I'm glad I found this product.

I have been using oil since the age of 12, after splitting it into additives, I began to take HX8, there were no complaints, they dismantled the head when the valve was bent, the guys said. What washes well even after a hundred thousand runs . clean . the quality of the canister and a drop on the lid, the sticker shimmers . YouTube views showed it seems to be the original. About the quality is unknown, you can run into a fake everywhere! Now it has even fallen in price from 2600 to 2400, they…

Pros
  • So far, from the merits of the price, almost as before, it was made 20 years old for today's 23, the expiration date is probably suitable. Although I know that 5 years
Cons
  • Haven't found any cons yet

Of course, I was attracted by the price, but at the same time I was scared, Why is it so cheap compared to other stores? After reading reviews I hoped I'd be lucky with the original. I was worried about the year of manufacture and compatibility with the Mazda 6. But the seller did not answer. In the end, at your own peril and risk, I decided to buy and it seems that I did not lose. The courier didn't let go until I checked everything (by eye). codes, stickers in place. The release year is 2022.

Pros
  • Price
Cons
  • The seller does not answer questions, it is impossible to contact.

The quality exceeds all expectations, I recommend to buy.

Lil and lew shell into their cars. Flight is normal. On the Hyundai, the hydraulics tapped on the cold (due to the development in the head). On an old Audi a4 b6 1.8t, the burnout is less than it was on Mobil oil (I didn’t notice any changes in engine operation). Both on an atmospheric and on a turbo engine, the oil darkens by 3000-4000 km, regardless of whether it was changed with or without flushing (even after engine capitalization, it darkens steadily after 3000 km). For myself, I chose a…

Pros
  • Price quality
Cons
  • The tightness of the lid (sometimes it leaks).

Think carefully before you buy this product

By itself, this engine oil is very good, but at the moment it is produced in 2022 and this is the catch. I’ll tell you how it usually happens with us, a brand opens its production in our country and at first the goods are made of high quality, then the production manager comes up with a “brilliant” idea that you can save money and this very saving begins, some additives begin to be under-delivered and in the end.

Pros
  • Well-known and not very expensive brand.
Cons
  • 2022 production.
