Gates Engine Oil Filler Cap P/N:31279

$8.99

Description

Gates 31279 oil & lubrication components for the 2001-2010 Toyota Highlander and other vehicles come as an engine oil filler cap that closes the oil filler opening and keeps oil in the engine.

Impact-resistant plastic or heavy-gauge metal construction for long service life
Fit, form and performance made to OEM specifications or better
Special finish that resists corrosion and protects against high under-hood temperatures

A cap that is cracked, warped or no longer seats snugly can let oil seep out around the filler opening. With the engine off and cool, look the cap over for cracks or distortion and check the area around it for oil residue. A leak from a nearby gasket can leave a similar trace, so find where the oil is coming from before you replace the cap.

The cap is a direct-fit replacement for the 1999-2006 Toyota Camry and the 1998-2006 Toyota Sienna, along with other Toyota and Lexus models. For any other car, open the Buyer's Guide tab and search by year and engine.
