If you go for the GSF one, watch out for the 40% off deals they regularly run.

60% at the moment. Tbf its been around 60% off for the past 5-6 months!!

I fitted a Meyle Expansion tank almost 2 years ago now which has been absolutely fine. Bought it on Ebay. Currently available for £25 delivered

The tank also has a Meyle 2 year warranty
IIRC the original '03 BMW one that failed was manufactured by Behr :?

Has anyone tried using the e46 mishimoto Ali version?

Eek - that sounds like a right old mish-mash!

Hope you get it sorted OP.
