Ive noticed a little coolant in the top on the reservoir. I'm thinking the cap is letting some get out. Running temps are normal. I ordered a new one. Was wondering if they tend to go as radiator caps do with age and wear? Mine goes on not so easily and If I hand tighten it, I see more seepage. I usually use a strap wrench to get it good and snug.

One of the worst designed parts on these water cooled '911s' is the radiator cap (coolant cap). I have gone through 3 in 50,000 miles (4 years) of service. All have been replaced under warranty so far.
