e85 expansion tank replacement

[redgum]

Hi, Just noticed a slight leak on my e85 3lt expansion tank and will replace it, any recommendations on a new tank or is it best just to sod the expense and get a OEM.

I've used Hella and Febi Bilstein with no issues at all.
If your car is an auto you will also need to replace the oil cooler thermostat that sits inside the bottom of the tank.

Thanks for your prompt reply, will get one of these as the OEM are very expensive, as for our last chat on yaw sensors, picked one up for £25 second hand, hope this fixes the problem, not had chance to see if its wet under the seat yet as been busy with work.

Once again, thanks.
