      Classic failure point. The new ones have a longer metal reinforcement pipe inside the plastic nipple. Some people try to glue the broken, less-reforced ones but the fix rarely lasts very long.

      Have a look at this post, "Inside the 4A0121403 Coolant Reservoir (with level switch)":

            On ourside of the pond, going with less than OE coolant tanks has equalled false economy. ( £15 sounds Chinese = cheap and cheerful but....)

                That's the only reason I changed mine, nice clean header tank with clean pink coolant

                        I may put a gt one on in the morning so I can at least use the car
                        2 of 3 screw holes measure up the same but need check hose diameter below tank
                        I m also thinking of asking my mate how much to make an alloy tank as he s a fabricator

                          They don't list one for the Ur, you can have a look at my A6 one to see if it will fit.
