The move by Chevrolet to offer the new street/race blend of 0W-40 from Mobil 1 as the factory fill for the new 2019 Corvettes has sparked a second question. Where can I score a new Mobil 1 0W-40 oil cap?
We reached out to Corvette Product Manager Harlan Charles after receiving your emails and he provided us the part numbers you need to order the caps from your Chevrolet dealer’s parts counter.
The official GM part numbers for the new oil caps are:
- 12686472 – 2019 Corvette Stingray w/o Z51
- 12680708 – 2019 Corvette Stingray w/Z51, Grand Sport, Z06, ZR1
We checked around online and the new oil cap part numbers are starting to show up in various Chevrolet/GM official parts websites. We found them starting at the low price of $6.45 at ChevroletOnlineParts.com (The Stingray Z51/Grand Sport/Z06/ZR1 oil cap is priced at $23.12).
The new 0W-40 synthetic oil from Mobil 1 solves the issue of having to change your oil before going to the track and then having to change it back again once the track event is over. The dexos oil is now available at Chevrolet dealers and will be on the shelves of retail stores this summer.

I’ve got a 2018 Grand Sport built the 3rd week of December 2017 and hasn’t even gone in for it’s 500 mile oil change yet. Any reason why I couldn’t change over my GS to the new oil?
Will those caps fit their respective prior year models? 2014 – 2018 models ?

HUH?
I opted for the less expensive “expedited”!
Why would you want one of those caps unless you are going to use the new oil. My self I am considering a 19 I will not need that 0-40 hope I can just use 5w 30!?
Wonder if they will fit our 85 greenwood and 94 lt1?
You don’t NEED it,it’s an option.
