Castrol has developed a new oil sump system it calls Nexcel that could allow car owners to change their own oil in just 90 seconds, much faster than the 15 to 20 minutes it typically takes even a professional service center to complete the process today.
Instead of being poured into the engine, the oil is contained in a carbon fiber cell that’s inserted into a port connected to the motor, and is as simple to swap as the cartridges in an inkjet printer.
Nexcel debuts this year in the 800 hp 7.0-liter V12 of the $2.5 million Aston Martin Vulcan track car, where it effectively replaces the tank used in a traditional high-performance dry sump oiling system, according to Aston Martin.
