Hi,

From the attached image, can the rubber retaining strip be replaced without buying the whole new cap please (ours perished)?



Thanks.

Not that I found - but then I stopped looking when I found out the whole thing was only a few £ to replace

The pictured cap costs £32 from Powerful UK. It was just an example to show the strap. Not a lot of money but our cap is fine, less the rubber strap.

Mine was the same, Ryan. Dealer replaced it FOC.

Powerful's prices are horrendous on Genuine stuff. Si. <This is my name.

A man ain't truly been insulted until he stands buck naked in front of a woman and she didn't even notice. Or care.

Thanks Si, was that a replacement rubber strap or the entire cap (nice a home btw )...

Entire cap. You can't buy the rubber strip seperately. Si. <This is my name.

I think the part number is: WLD500220 and should be about £7.50 plus vat from dealers. Try Dan.

There seems to be a newer one LR012897 that is priced at over £35 which is ridiculous for a standard fuel cap so try and source the older one. What changes could they really have made to a lid?

My rubber retainer strap broke last week so I just removed it and use the cap old school style! Tom

It is a bit ridiculous that we have to fork out pounds to get something that actually costs a few pence at the most.

Mine is also gone but I just leave it. I stick it in the "holder" in the fuel door during filling and that's it. MY 2010 5.0 SC Galway green and sand interior!!

Thanks Si/ all...

Hope it works

Thanks again all.. I'm told also that there's a difference between the fitment of diesel and petrol caps
