♡ Save to wishlistDescription
Made from plastic, the expansion tank base is exposed to a lot of heat from the cooling system, causing them to become brittle and crack. Often times, the base will crack when a new expansion tank is being installed. We recommend replacement as part of good preventative maintenance, particularly whenever replacing the expansion tank. Made by Germany's Febi-Bilstein.
Helpful tips
