Does anyone know the source for a decent quality aluminium/magnesium gas cap to replace the $.50 plastic item from Porsche?

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

3 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 2Original post

I don't know where you can get such a gas cap, but if you do find one I suggest you make sure it can accept the rubber gasket that's on the Porsche cap or else your "Check Engine" light will be coming on persistently. Just a thought.

POST 3Original post

You need to be a bit careful here. That cheap plastic cap is part of the OBD II emissions system and a vented cap will trigger a fault code and turn on the Check Engine light. You are looking at making one of those illegal modifications to the emisions system that we so dearly love to do!
