Idlewillkill 10 Posted November 4, 2012 Guys, real quick one, is the seal supposed to stay on the tank instead of the cap like this on a VR6? Cheers. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
seanl82 23 Posted November 4, 2012 Looks like its been put there by someone previously mate. Cap has a seal further in than the thread iirc. It seals over the top of the hole on the tank, rather than the threaded part iirc Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Idlewillkill 10 Posted November 4, 2012 Cheers. Are there a choice of two caps, blue and black, like with a Golf/Scirocco by any chance? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
seanl82 23 Posted November 5, 2012 Blue caps are the updated version. The old black one were renowned for not venting, or venting too early. Worth upgrading to the blue if you dont already have that one as its a common cause of failure Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Idlewillkill 10 Posted November 5, 2012 Brill, mine came with the black cap. All my previous VWs have had an issue with the caps. Infact last week I had buy a replacement blue version for my Golf. Im jinxed! Cheers for the help chaps. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
