    The issue only happens in combination with metal stems (i.e. newer cars with TPMS sensors). MINI even had to change their accessory decorative caps from metal to plastic because of this.

    No. I cannot, because I do not use them on my cars. I use the fingernail polish to "glue" the cap threats to the caps, instead...remember?
