Coolant Cap Issue?
2000 S. Coolant cap with .04 suffix, i.e. latest model. Replaced original cap about a year ago with this new model.
Noticed that I have condensation on the underside of the trunk lid in the coolant cap area. Cap shows a bit of dampness. Tank does not appear to be cracked nor is there any coolant in and around the carpeting. Had to fill up with about a quart of water recently but do not see any major puddling of water on underside of car. Cap is torqued down as tight as it can go.
Is it normal that the cap (new model) leaks a bit? Have any of the new caps been known to be defective? Is best remedy to buy a new cap?
