Can someone confirm if the R8 items from Audi will be a straight fit, or is the thread different to that of the R32?

Cheers

I got my oil cap from awsome came in a genuine audi box and it fits I think the only issue is that it doesn't sit level not the one from awsome one from audil(the logo) so you have to split it and move it round but it will fit straight out of the box

The coolant cap fits too but very expensive for what it is but it does look good

Mine dont sit right

The actual cap comes apart in 2 halves and you can then line it up to sit square I think you need to file one if the tabs it should sit like this

By the looks of it, the standard Audi issue item is the same no matter what. I just want to be sure it is, as I may be able to get a favour called in

If anyone thinks it isn't, I would be glad to here from you.

As stated you can split the cap in 2 and modify it to sit straight. The same with the coolant cap. I did mine and it was pretty easy
