Add this to the "most anoying things..." thread.
It's the &*^$#ing worst when you are trying to fill it and it springs shut and spills fluid everywhere.

Would you guys reccomend this Audi cap mod or the Skoda filler cap with the built in funnel?

The Skoda cap is much better. No hinge, won't close, and it's a funnel.

eh??....
I get that the Skoda cap has a big lid which is a funnel...but the Audi cap which this how to guide is about has a proper two piece hinge which is less likely to break & will stay open on you, & not snap shut when you are halfway through pouring screen wash in.

The Skoda cap is not a flimsy, thin plastic affair. Sorry to insert a comment in a how-to, but someone asked.

No, I was referring to the stock cap. Sorry. The Skoda unit is thick, soft and pliable. You can squish it with your hand. My initial concern, when I installed it, was that it would not stay shut.
