Replacement Oil Cap
« on: May 23, 2018, 08:56:30 am »
I know there are a couple of oil-caps that fit the Mk5 GTi that aren't the original OEM ones, for example the R8 one..

Are there any others that would fit but also look a bit nicer? (R8 ones are £40-£50!)

The R8 one looks great i got one myself best bet on the R8 ones is to keep a close eye on ebay as they can be had for a snap bought mine for £24 posted i believe a porche one will fit???

My mk5 gti kept blowing the top off the standard one then put the R8 on and it blew the bit of plastic between head and cover so now its sat on the head of engine havent had any issues at all

Keep a close eye on ebay best bet dude always a bargin to be had
