Air Filter

Air & Cabin Filter Replacement

Air Filter Replacement – Engine Air Filters help ensure clean air flows into your engine to improve performance. Over time, air filters can get clogged with dirt and debris, leading to restricted airflow into the engine.

Cabin Filter Replacement – An air cabin filter is important in any vehicle’s heating and cooling system. It helps protect the passengers from contaminants in the air they breathe.

Depending on your car, it is recommended to change filters every 15,000 miles, while others recommend a change at least every 25,0000 – 30,0000 miles. Each manufacturer has its own recommendation, so review your manual for your specific make and model, or just ask one of our techs when you are next at Groovy Lube, and they can check and let you know what your car needs.

As always, we’ll inspect your filters as part of our free maintenance check whenever you purchase a full-service oil change.

Castrol GTX Full Synthetic

Castrol Edge GTX Silver

MAXIMUM PROTECTION TO HELP EXTEND ENGINE LIFE

In our efforts to continually upgrade our motor oil portfolio, we discontinued the GTX MAGNATEC motor oil line and replaced it with new GTX Full Synthetic.

Castrol GTX Full Synthetic provides maximum protection to help fight the impact of severe conditions that can potentially shorten engine life. Tough driving conditions like idling on congested highways and frequent, short trips put peak loads on critical engine parts and create engine wear. Environmental factors like heat can lead to sludge, varnish and carbon build-up in your engine. Castrol GTX Full Synthetic has been proven to dramatically reduce engine wear – 6X better than the industry standard.* It also cleans away old sludge*** and protects against new sludge formation 1.3X better than required by the latest industry standard,** giving you more control over today’s difficult driving conditions and miles more driving enjoyment

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF GTX FULL SYNTHETIC?

Castrol GTX Full Synthetic helps extend engine life with:

  • Superior wear protection on critical engine parts (6X better wear protection)*
  • Superior sludge cleaning and protection against new formation (1.3X better sludge protection)**
  • Full synthetic formula provides thermal and oxidation stability
  • Superior level of protection against viscosity breakdown

*Based on Seq IVA test vs. latest test limits
**Based on Seq VH results vs. API test limits
***When tested in engines with high level of sludge

Castrol GTX Synthetic Blend High Mileage

Castrol GTX Green

HELPS PREVENT EMISSION SYSTEM FAILURE

Castrol® GTX® High Mileage motor oil is the leading consumer high miles brand. You won’t need to worry about using a high mileage oil or synthetic because this is both. It’s a synthetic blend engine oil that helps extend the life of your engine by protecting against sludge, wear and burn-off and also liquid engineered to protect your emission system. One of the leading causes of ‘check engine’ lights coming on in high mileage cars is actually catalytic converter failure, which can be caused by phosphorous in engine oil. While phosphorous is present in all engine oils for its ability to reduce wear, it is effectively poisonous to catalytic converters.

Castrol GTX High Mileage Motor Oil is liquid engineered with Phosphorous Replacement Technology to replace some of the phosphorous with an advanced additive that maintains robust wear protection. When you want to extend the life of your high mileage engine and emission system, there is no better choice than Castrol GTX High Mileage Motor Oil.

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF CASTROL GTX HIGH MILEAGE?

Castrol GTX Full Synthetic helps extend engine life with:

  • Phosphorus Replacement Technology to help extend the life of the emission system
  • Superior dispersancy that fights sludge build up
  • Exceptional oil burn-off protection exceeding industry standards*
  • Seal conditioners to help reduce leaks
  • Advanced additives that minimize engine wear
  • Improved fuel economy**

* Based on API and ACEA volatility specifications
** In 5W-20, 5W-30 and 10W-30 grades versus industry specifications

Castrol GTX Base Ultra Clean Synthetic Blend

Castrol GTX Base Ultra Clean Synthetic Blend

WHAT IS CASTROL GTX ULTRACLEAN?

Castrol® Ultraclean is a synthetic blend engine oil available in 0W-20, 5W-20 and 5W-30 grades. Its double-action formula has been proven to clean away the sludge that can block engine oilways* and helps prevent new sludge formation thanks to its synthetic technology. In fact, it provides up to 1.4X better sludge protection than is demanded by the latest industry standard. If keeping your engine clean is important to you, it’s good to know that no other oil keeps engines cleaner.

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF CASTROL GTX ULTRACLEAN?

  • 1.4X superior sludge protection compared to tough industry standards**
  • Advanced protection against viscosity and thermal breakdown
  • Superior protection against high-temperature deposits
  • Premium-quality base oils and anti-wear additives that help extend the life of your engine

* When tested in engines with a high level of sludge
** As measured in the Sequence VH Sludge test vs. API SP test limits

Castrol Edge Euro Formula

Castrol Edge Euro Formula

UNLOCK MAXIMUM ENGINE PERFORMANCE

Castrol EDGE Euro Car formulas have been optimized to meet the stringent requirements of the various European Automobile Manufacturers Association or ACEA oil sequences. These standards can apply to both gasoline and diesel powered engines and are often more demanding than ILSAC/API requirements.

Many European vehicles are equipped with ultra-efficient, high-performance engines that generate extreme pressure and operate at high temperatures. This intense pressure creates friction that can waste up to 10% of engine performance and severe heat can reduce oil flow. Castrol EDGE Euro Car fluids are engineered with Fluid TITANIUM Technology to transform under pressure, increasing its film strength to prevent oil breakdown and reducing friction to unlock maximum engine performance.

The Castrol EDGE Euro Car portfolio is certified Carbon Neutral in accordance with PAS2060. Please see www.castrol.com/us/cneutral for details on our Path 360 sustainability program.
