Gas cap very tight
The gas cap on my 2018 S450 is getting very tight. I am not sure what lube to use. Don't want to contaminate the fuel system.
What is the recommended way to fix this?

Hey if you dont want gas all over the road---replace the cap with a good wool rag!

Why not have the dealer check it under warranty.

That was my first idea as well, just trying to save a trip.
