my dm leaks from the back cap and it is deffo the bolt back cap because i have used soapy water and it leaks from the sides of the cap.
If i wrap the cap threads in PTFE tape the leak stops.

Have you tried replacing the two green orings on the back section, and the two orange orings on the bolt tail and then greasing them well

The teflon will work as a temporary fix (if you have no o-rings for example), but if that is stopping the leak, then 100% it is the green 020 o-ring nearest the back of the bolt kit that is leaking.

Have you checked for any scratches on the back cap or inside of the body?

I have replaced the back green #020 oring many times and there are no scratches on the back cap or the inside of the gun and still I can't stop it I have even tried dow55 to swell that back oring and still it leaks
