Oil Filler Caps



OEM Oil Filler Caps

It's a small screw-on cap that's often made of plastic. It's one of several items that are part of changing the oil. If you open the hood, you'll find the oil filler cap on top of or near a valve cover. It's usually on the driver's side of the engine bay. The oil filler cap seals the oil fill opening, which is where you pour the motor oil. Some oil filler caps have "engine oil" or some variation written on them. In other words, the oil filler cap is the cap you remove when adding fresh oil to the engine.

If you’ve lost it after an oil change, you won't be in trouble so long as you don’t drive your car. Driving without an oil cap is unsafe for your vehicle and can quickly lead to irrevocable engine damage. Without a seal, the oil can leak into the engine compartment. Due to a lack of lubrication, your engine may overheat. This can cause it to seize, requiring engine replacement.

Without an oil cap, your oil supply is open to the air. Alas, roadways are not clean, and all the debris on the road’s surfaces can find its way into the oil. Granted, every car has an oil filter that will protect your engine for a time, but eventually, it will clog with the extra debris. The particles in the oil will start to lodge into the engine parts and generate friction, resulting in wear and tear as well as heat. You will likely hear knocking noises as an indication of this, and if this is happening, then your engine rods are going to loosen. Due to these side effects, an innocuous bit of dust can cause a lot of damage.
