[Es2] Best expansion tank?Kenneth Keith auditude at gmail.comWed Mar 4 14:04:56 PST 2009
It's time again for me to replace a leaking expansion tank, this time on my '90 CQ that's been sitting. The last one I bought started to inflate so I was able to exchange it under warranty. I believe this one is the exchanged one, but I apparently installed it some time back in '05. That seems way long ago, but that's what my Autohausaz.com transaction history shows. I noticed the tanks on the market are much more translucent than the more opaque ones that we used to get. I think the new ones, although they look nice, suck. I don't know if there are any differences in the ones available from various sources, but I sure would like to get one that lasts a decent amount. I haven't even driven my CQ in a year, and now that I've started it and cycled the coolant temp a couple times it's got a nice leak where the webbing is trying to keep it from inflating. So, is it a crapshoot to buy any of the tanks on the market, or is there a certain supplier that has some better quality? Are the ones from the dealer any better than, say, autohausaz.com or 034motorsport.com ones? Thanks, Kenneth
