Hi guys, i dont know how its happened but the cap on my clutch resovior has broken on the thread. It still seals ok at the moment, but id like to get one asap really...

Anyone know the part number if i can get it seperatly, or where i can get a cap from?

Had exactly the same problem myself, eventually got one from a BMW dealership (see post below).

Oh right seems im not the only one, strange how it goes like this.

Thanks for the help!, how much was it from BMW? and was it for any particular mini?

From memory £7 - £8. I checked the cap from my mates BMW Mini (51 plate), it fitted and so he got one for his car from his BMW dealership. Oddly enough as the info on the top of the new cap was printed in German I thought I would check the brake fluid reservoir behind the bulkhead. The cap on that reservoir was exactly the same as that on the new cap - in German. So I assume they are both BMW stock parts.
