Why Replace the Expansion Tank?

Common failure symptoms include:

• Coolant warning light

• Coolant leaks from seam cracks

• Overheating under load

• False low-level warnings

Heat cycling and plastic fatigue are typical on W204/W212 platforms. Replacing with a German-manufactured OE-quality tank prevents cooling system pressure loss and protects your cylinder head gasket and turbo system.
