nathan.g4 0 Posted November 27, 2008 I was just wondering, Can you use any other VW expansion tanks on the Corrado as mine is disgustingly dirty and i would like a new one :shrug: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
g60karmann 0 Posted November 27, 2008 you could get a alloy one made up... I think some companies already do them, I got one for my charge cooler header tank that looks pretty sweet will put up some images when it is in. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

boost monkey 0 Posted November 27, 2008 they're a bit complex to expect a dishwasher to get them sparkling. just buy a new one. hmm, where have i heard that before... oh, on the other 372 expansion tank threads on here :hitler: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 2 Posted November 27, 2008 Just go and buy a new one.. approx £10 for a pattern one - 3-4x that for a new / genuine VAG one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VR6 0 Posted November 27, 2008 hmm, where have i heard that before... oh, on the other 372 expansion tank threads on here :hitler: People will start suggesting that 'Boost Monkey' is actually just a shill account that I use to deflect attention away from 'VR6' :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Bacon 5 Posted November 27, 2008 Get a MK4 expansion tank. Minimal mods required and you get the bonus of a MUCH nicer cap, which click locks. As you probably know, the VR6 one needs pliers to undo! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Supercharged 2 Posted November 27, 2008 Yip, MK4 ones is less than a tenner from VW, cap is another fiver plus you will need a new plug for the round level sensor... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
