I have just noticed that my coolant expansion tank is cracked and seeping.

What, (in your opinion), is the best way to go, get a replacement OEM tank or get an aftermarket alloy tank?

Pro's, con's, cost?

Cheers,

Andy

IMO, if your car is standard then OEM

Mine is 'mildly modded' ;), so I have an aftermarket in red to match the valve covers

Where is the best place to get a new tank? Vtec isn't listing it on their web site, and while D*** Racing is, I really don't fancy taking pot luck with him after the tales of woes recently. Anyway the postage to Brunei or UK, (I am coming in a couple of weeks), for a single item may well render it better to get ripped off by the main agent. Any of the UK dealers do mail order parts? Do I have to go to one of the NSX specialists, or are any Honda dealer willing to empty my wallet?

My Honda dealer here in Brunei refuses to deal with me as he didn't supply the car. Short sighted or what?

Cheers,

Andy
