Where Do Your Fluids Go?


Where Do Your Fluids Go?


Antifreeze/Coolant

This is an extremely durable formula that provides maximum protection without the use of harmful silicates. It is compatible with non-metallic materials to help extend the life of water pump seals. Additionally, it won't corrode aluminum surfaces like coolants that contain borate and it is also compatible with Toyota Red Long Life Antifreeze/Coolant.

Genuine Toyota Motor Oil

Available in 5W-30, 10W-30 and 10W-40 grades, this motor oil helps protect metal and gasket surfaces from corrosion, prevents foaming and maintains the proper application of oil on cylinder walls.

Synthetic Motor Oil

This motor oil improves fuel economy, improves thermal stability and provides longer oil change intervals. Because many new Toyota models are certified for a new, zero weight synthetic lubrication standard, this oil pumps better when cold. It also provides more uniform lubrication and overall efficiency than conventional engine oil.

Brake Cleaner

When your brakes start to squeal and chatter, brake cleaner is an effective, non-chlorinated formula that removes brake fluid, grease, oil and other contaminants without leaving residue.

Battery Cleaner

Great to use on batteries, terminals, cables and brackets, this is a unique formula that contains a cleaner, acid detector, neutralizer and protector all in one spray can. It penetrates and emulsifies dirt, grease and deposit, and it turns from light red to blue in the presence of acid.

Automatic Transmission Fluid

When you need quiet operation and smooth shifting in non-sealed Toyota automatic transmissions, automatic transmission fluid offers excellent lubrication characteristics, extends the transmission life and provides excellent drivability.

Brake Fluid

Used to help provide superior performance in all Toyota brake systems where DOT 3 brake fluid is recommended, this is a super heavy-duty, high-temperature brake fluid designed by Toyota engineers.
