Check the "Z" label after a long, hot drive. I've got the same cap and the label came lose after a summer drive from CA to Reno (AC on).
My fix was applying some 5-minute epoxy to the bottom of the label and top area of the cap--NO problems since!

Enjoy!

You can buy them direct from progear2000.com. "E"Bay bidders bid them up higher than the direct mail price. I bought one for my "G" (didn't want the "Z" Logo. You can get them plain, with a carbon fibre center, or the "Z" Logo. Price is 19.94 shipped complete.

Yeah, the same thing happened to mine too. It came off after about a week and I just used a hot glue gun and reglued it and it's been on there ever since.

Thanks for the warning. I'll keep an eye on the label and glue it down if I see it coming off. I also went to progear2000's website. Pretty weak website if you ask me. I couldn't even find the oil cap on their website.
