I swear I have seen talk about this issue on here before, but I'll be damned if I can find anything here or on Google now that I need the info. Please be gentle, I searched.
My oil cap appears to be seeping some oil that is getting on my valve cover, looked and sure enough the seal is hard and feeling very much perished. Realoem indicates the seal is not available separately, but the rest of the cap is in nice shape. I also read that the non-OEM caps can present problems, which doesn't shock me.
tl;dr: Are there any sources for oil cap seals or do we just have to buy a whole new cap from BMW? Any other options?
Thanks!
