My tool came from Bavarian. I think it was $15. Money well spent. It is a special cap wrench. The Bavarian has the 17mm hex head on it so you can use the same wrench or socket you use on the drain plug.

I saw a post where somebody said they would use a microfiber over the cap and a channel lock. But I wouldn't want to risk damage to my bimmer over a $15 tool.
