I went to the Chevy dealership to get a replacement valve stem cap because I was missing one. I tried the standard caps from autozone but they were too short.

So, the dealership gave me cap and it also is too short. The parts guy said that is the only cap they have.

Anyone else run into this? Pretty sure the valve stems are stock and the caps I do have looked identical to the one the dealership gave me, just longer.

Yep. I’ve run into this. The valve stems with TPMS have a longer cap.

My dealership was able to give me a handful. But I couldn’t tell you the part number.

Made me look at my own tire valve stem caps and noticed they were all different…
Found these at Amazon.

I get my tire work done at walmart (I used to work there and trust them) and they had the proper caps in their shop when I lost 2 of mine.
