Seems like an interesting take. I bet that's what it is if the cap doesn't solve it. Maybe the aluminum cap seats better if that's the problem spot, or maybe it doesn't sit there at all. How BMW has allowed such quality to pass, I don't know. To my understanding this is the OFH that shipped with the car.
