Porsche oil cap - Part No: 991 107 475 00
Porsche coolant cap - Part No: 991 106 457 01

The oil cap is supposedly cheaper than the R8 one

Post by: camfollower on March 22, 2013, 11:35:56 am: Very smart... If I didn't have the R8 one and black caps for the coolant and washer tanks, I'd grab these.

Might just grab the coolant one, they are £17.50 +VAT from the Porsche parts desk

Post by: Paullie773 on March 22, 2013, 02:57:08 pm: I already had the R8 oil cap and got the Porsche coolant cap in a GB on another site for under £20. Don't think it looks too out of place alongside the R8 one. Have to say that these Porsche caps are WAY better value than the equivalent Audi ones, especially the coolant which stings you to the tune of around £60! :smiley:

They are a straight fit, Matey with no modding required. If you want them lined up, so they sit perfectly horizontal, you need to prise the top and bottom parts of the caps apart, turn the top part a few degrees and pop it back together. Very simple to do. :happy2:

Post by: richtung on March 23, 2013, 08:40:50 am: im so tempted by these... just need confirmation they will fit the Ed30?

Ive read that a GB was run last year on on the audi-sport forum and that there might have been issues with fitting to the 2.0 TFSI engine...
