I've noticed this over the last few years, the Oil Filler cap on the wifes W202 seems to be getting harder and harder to get off. I now have to try and do it after a run when everythings Hot . I have before on occasion used a pair of molegrips wrapped with a towel. Is it time to replace it ? is it the rubber on the seal gone hard ? you cant put anything on the seal other than engine Oil
What worries me now is having resealed all the valve covers I can see that the filler neck is seperate to the cover casting, and excessive force could force it off its locating screw Then its a valve cover off jobbie to replace
I've now talked myself into getting a new one but has anyone else had this and did a new one sort it
