I know how daft this sounds, and tbh it's embarasing to ask, but my mekkanikul nollidge has deserted me.
I am trying to top up the oil in the P5 (straight 6) but the filler cap refuses to twist or lift, in fact it's being a complete harlot. I know it's unlikely but anyone know how the chuff to get it off? As in how is it meant to come off - as i don't want to use the normal brute force method.
Fankoooo.

Is it one with a cap on the top of the cam cover and a separate filler pipe on a neck beside it, going to the sump?
(Just thinking if these are related to the land rover lumps)

Think it just pulls off, if it's the same as I had on my Land Rover.
Putting oil in that was a daily ritual LOL.
