    VR6 expansion tank

    Hi Guys,

    Mien greeny has sprung a bad leak and needs a new expansion tank. But I can't find one anywhere. It looks like VW discontinued them in 2012-ish.

    Is there another tank from a different golf that'll fit? One from a mk4 or an r32?

    Cheers

    Aren't all mk3 tanks the same?

    Nope, the 2L one is much smaller.

    They're brand new. I had just searched vw mk3 on ebay and seen 3 bnib within 3 minutes.

    The 50ml of coolant won't make a difference. 95% of vr's will have the 4 cyl ones installed. All mine have had the smaller one.

    Alright, that is what I figured but wanted to hear it from someone else. I'll order one from there shortly. Cheers
