I might go ahead and cut it and make a temporary set up, until I can obtain the correct cap from the dealer.

But now I'm worried about the rear. I was looking for the rear vent hose, but lost it somewhere above the spare. Anyone know where it terminates? Is it vulnerable to blockages?

Thanx. Looks like I'll be searching it out this weekend when I install the new trailer towing harness that arrived yesterday. Now I just wish I could find one of the required hitches for a "reasonable" price. There is absolutely no justification for the $200 (used) ridiculous price. Mad

I have a similar thing going on...both rear seals on the axle shafts though. Do you have a write up at all?

I don't have a write-up. Suffice to say the rear seal leaked again...so I had it replaced again...using a LR seal. And...once again, it is leaking...same side, just not as bad. So at this point, I am just living with it. The non-Rover dealership from which I purchased the vehicle most likely will not be interested in going at it a 3rd time on their dime. So until I kick out $400 or so, I'll wait until it starts to leak a bit more. Neutral
