Hi Gar yes part numbers checked and filter cap went on with ease. It would take quite an amount of force to get the cap back on snug if the filter was incorrect (as in too tall), and in trying one would most likely ring the threads in the plastic cap itself. Apparently this is somewhat common on the N52 engines from reading up afterwards I found many people complain of this issue.
