This should probably be in the technical section but is there some sort of trick to removing one of those stupid integrated radiator caps on a VZ commodore? No amount of force is making it budge. Tried pushing down while turning, just turning without pushing...no luck. Just about to drive to Townsville and the dipstick is showing empty. I've been smelling coolant and wouldn't mind seeing inside the radiator!
Thanks.

It should just turn like a normal cap.
