Geeeeez how much hassle can this be??

I have item number 61671370777 washer bottle for windows and intense cleaning.

My car has a blue Peugeot/Citroen broken cap fitted so I wanted to replace it - its falling off and split.

Looking at Realoem there are 4 caps listed and non of them appear to cross refer to my water bottle - I also checked BMW Classic and there are two items listed and no idea from pics which one fits. Half of them look like the intense cleaning cap or the rear window caps for a saloon - this is driving me nuts for such a stupid little thing

The cap is 54 mm and should have a "leash"

Thoughts from anyone who can be bothered with such an anal problem!!

thanks anyway...

Have a look at part number 6 on this link, it has 2 part numbers, if you put them into google you get a few results but not sure on the size. part numbers are: 61 66 1 373 175 and 61 66 1 369 516

and a link to one on
ebay https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BMW-Genuine- ... 2194317742
Hope that helps. :D

Hi,

I don't think it's 6 - that's the intensive washer cover - which I have - it's the small one.

I reckon the part is 11 - but again there's 4 types and short of ordering all of them there's no way to know which one fits - I've already got a dud off Ebay - looks right but just drops off -

The bottom link looks right but again could be the intensive wash cover -

I reckon i'm gonna drive the car to my local dealer - they can order all of them and see what fits!!

This is the only one in production 61 66 7 467 951 and it won't fit either.

and this is the bottle:
