Genuine Toyota Replacement Fluids

Third-party sellers or big box auto stores will have you believing that any old brand of fluid will suffice when it comes to changing the fluids in your vehicle, using the excuse that the label matched exactly what you're looking for. However, the brand you choose genuinely does matter. Ensuring that the fluid you choose has the appropriate chemical composition is critical to your vehicle's performance. At Capitol Toyota, you'll discover that the fluids we carry are exclusively made by Toyota and comply with particular requirements.

When you bring your Toyota to our service center, you can be confident that only the finest, high-quality fluids will be used in your vehicle. We always utilize only genuine OEM parts and fluids with your vehicle's best interests in mind. There are additional advantages to using Toyota-recommended replacement fluids that you can read about below.

Super-Long-Life Antifreeze/Coolant

This antifreeze and coolant has been approved by the Toyota Motor Company, which is specifically formulated to regulate your engine's temperature without utilizing borate or any types of silicates. As a result, it lasts longer, allowing for increased intervals between coolant system flushes, and providing you greater peace of mind.

  • Pre-diluted 50/50
  • Compatibility with non-metallic materials helps it extend the life of water pump seals
  • Compatible with Toyota Red Long Life Antifreeze/Coolant
  • Won't clog radiators due to silicone "gelling"
  • Won't corrode aluminum surfaces like coolants that contain borate

Genuine Toyota Motor Oil

Without oil, which is crucial to keeping our vehicle running, your engine would literally cease to function. Your engine already works hard but with the wrong oil installed, it will have to work even harder, leading to possible overheating. When you utilize Toyota Motor Oil, which is specially formulated for your specific Toyota model, you also get an additive that helps fight corrosion and foaming.

  • Available in 5W-30, 10W-30 and 10W-40 grades
  • Viscosity index improvers stabilize viscosity levels for a wide range of operating temperatures
  • Four-point depressants maintain fluidity in cold climates

Synthetic Motor Oil

You may not know that recently designed vehicles perform better with synthetic motor oil than they do with regular motor oil. This is because synthetic oil keeps a lower viscosity so that it's more like water than gel and makes it easier for your engine to pump through the system. This also makes for a better penetration through the right tolerances that comes from the precise Toyota manufacturing.

  • Longer oil change intervals
  • Helps improve fuel economy
  • Helps improve thermal stability

Brake Cleaner

Brake cleaner fluid is important because it removes dirt, oil, and other debris from your braking system with a combination of chemicals that break down these elements and flush them out. This not only gives you more reliable braking power but also extends the life of your brake pads and rotors.

  • Helps prevent brake squeal and chatter
  • Dries Quickly
  • Cleans without any waxy film or residue

Battery Cleaner

Keeping your vehicle's battery clean is more important than you may realize. Over time, corrosive materials can and will build up, reducing the lifespan and the efficiency of the battery. Buildup of corrosion on the connecting poles and wires of your car, truck, or SUV can lead to breakdowns or prevent your ride from starting altogether.

  • Protective film helps provide a barrier against corrosion
  • Penetrates and emulsifies dirt, grease and deposits
  • Helps return pH to a safe level
  • Light red color turns blue in the presence of acid

Automatic Transmission Fluid

If your vehicle suddenly starts to grind or if it's difficult to change gears, this is a sign of a damaged transmission. This is not something you want to discover while traveling at high speeds on the highway, or making a left-hand turn in a busy intersection. This is why it's important to replace your automatic transmission fluid at regular intervals.

  • Helps control "shudder" and provide excellent drivability
  • Resists foaming and oxidation
  • Extends transmission life

Brake Fluid

There are a lot of working parts on your Toyota that can help keep you safe, but your brakes are the most important. No matter if you're crawling in bumper-to-bumper traffic or flying up the highway at high speeds, your brakes can prevent collisions from fender benders to more serious accidents. Toyota-approved brake fluid can withstand high temperatures and is recommended for all Toyota brake systems.

At our service center, you'll only find genuine OEM parts and fluids that are tailored to your specific make and model.
