This is an expansion tank, a crucial part of the engine's cooling system that holds and regulates the coolant level. It allows for the expansion and contraction of coolant as it heats and cools, maintaining proper system pressure and preventing air from entering. A faulty expansion tank can lead to coolant loss, air in the system, and subsequent engine overheating.
Always verify with serial number before ordering.

Inspect mating surfaces for wear before fitting. Use torque specs from service manual. Replace gaskets and seals as a set — reusing compressed gaskets causes oil leaks. Clean all oil passages with compressed air.
Always consult the OEM service manual for model-specific torque values and procedures. WhatsApp our technical team if you need fitment guidance.
Visible coolant leaks around the tank or its connections, or a consistently low coolant level despite no obvious external leaks, are primary indicators of a failing expansion tank. The system may also exhibit air pockets, leading to intermittent overheating. If left unaddressed, it can result in significant coolant loss and potential engine damage due to overheating.
Ensure the tank's mounting points are secure to prevent vibration-induced stress on the plastic. Do not overtighten the cap, as this can damage the seal or the tank threads.
Always replace the radiator cap when replacing the expansion tank to ensure proper system pressure regulation.
