I have had two cars, 99 and 01 that was pressurizing the cooling system because of loose / stretched head bolts. if the cap does not work and the cooling system is over pressurized, then check head bolts and / or replace them with the procedure on the board. They will cost only about $40 and might be considered PM anyway. I have to check another 99 soon (my daughters) that I have not got to yet.
Some of the ones that I have checked had literally loose head bolts and 1/2 torque, etc.
Mainly 99 / 00 / 01. Have never done an 02.
