My oil one won't fit.

Obviously my filler tube is not central with the corresponding bonnet hole. Whilst there is plenty of space for the TVR standard item, the much wider Leven item fouls the side so cannot get central over the filler tube thread.

Water & Power Steering caps are fine.

Any ideas or send it back?

My oil filler is also quiet close to the bodywork although it does fit with a few mm clearance. I am not sure how the oil tank is mounted I suspect it is bolted down so there may be some scope for movement there, the only way would be to have the main bonnet off & have a look.

Maf, best bet is to phone Leven themselves and speak to Simon - he's always happy to help.

Mine was the same. I took the bonnet off and there was enough play to move it more central.
