I can't get a good seal at the brake fluid reservoir on the z4, The unit is new. I use the same unit on my acura with a different cap and have no issue.

Any modification or additional seal I can do? its like its leaking from the cap, not making a good seal there.

Mine seals well too (and seals well on Audi mc's)...does your cap look like this?

Mine seals fine on both my BMWs, the only one that isn't sealing as well is on my Scion/Toyota which use the universal cap
