Hi I just noticed my coolant cap doesn't tighten on correctly - see attached. The cap itself is tight and I'm not leaking coolant but I thought the logo is supposed to be straight. Youtube videos all show it straight when tight.
I read somewhere pressure is vented from the cap so I'm a bit concerned that I have a faulty cap and it may cause a problem.
Thanks for your reply. I had a closer look at the cap.
There's two plastic prongs. The first, with the cap graphics straight, hits a nib but the cap is loose. When tightened, the second tab reaches that spot. I'm not sure if my cap or coolant resouvoir has a problem or if its normal. Below are pictures.
Cap is straight but loose in this position Cap is tight in this position
