Small Crack in Coolent Tank HELP!
 

Well today i was driving along on the freeway when the car came up with the warning "check Coolent levels". So when i got home poped the bonnet and looked around and near the lid of the coolent tank there is a small crack and coolent is bubbling out of it.

So i was just asking how much would this be to fix?

:thumbup:

20 Expansion Tank 117107514964 $74.77 USD

If you're mechanically inclined, it's an easy remove and replace.

Same happened to me not too long ago, if you have extended warraty onyour car, the dealer should replace that (only paid $50)

dang dont have the warranty lol. I think i will just patch it up.

Get the tank, it will split wide open eventually and leave you stuck or worse...like overheated

I tried silicon around the edges for a while but it's nearly impossible to seal it, there's always a little bubble popping up somewhere around the tank, it's a good temp repair but certainly not permanent. The silicon starts to come off from the heat, mine is still barely holding up but when I have time I will change it.

I would make sure it is not the resevoir tank cap. I had to recently replace mine. and the cap was only 20 dollars.
