eh... well, I guess the dealer didn't tighten it enough. It was fine for the last two weeks or so (since before I went to Cape May), but today I noticed an oil burning smell popped the hood and it was gone.

Does anyone have a spare oil cap, please?

 

I suppose that's better than losing your bolt from the drain pan or losing your oil filter, but still sucks. Sorry to hear it. Was your oil level OK?

that sucks, . . .more reason to change your own oil , just a guess, but shouldnt just about any auto parts store have one that will fit? or are you specifically looking for an OEM one.

 

on another note, i would call the dealership, explain to them what happened, and i dont see why they wouldnt give you one out of good faith. when i last had my car in the shop, they somehow broke the grip on my oil cap, i didnt notice untill i did my next oil change (and cut my thumb when i tried to turn it) but i told them and they told me to come by and pick up a new one, no charge.

 

Mine broke during the DragonBall Run two weeks ago. None of the 3 local dealers had a new one in stock, and none of them were willing to sell me one off of a car in inventory either.

Hardtopguy had one in stock, thankfully!

 

evan i'll see if my brother has one in stock at frankel acura....i'll talk to him tonight and let you know

 

I have my stocker Tep

PM me a shipping address,

hey tap i've got an oem and im in baltimore city let me know

 

Thanks everyone for their offers. Instead of costing someone money for shipping or inconveniencing people here, I got my friend to chauffer me over to Salvo's and I picked up a new cap for $5. Now I have to go home and check the oil level and clean up spilled oil off the valve cover. Good reason to invest in a spoon oilcap (or something red)
