Non OEM 182 expansion tank

[Hyperhatch]

Hi

I'm just putting my Clio 182 back together and the old expansion tank is yellow and manky so I'd like to change it. The new OEM expansion tank is £50+. Has anyone run one from Euros (circa £15) on and has it been ok or do they fail/blow up after a year or so?!

Cheers

Mines a year old and still perfect.

I've bought about 3 ECP ones over the last few years (Topran branded) and they all have a terrible thread on the moulding they use for the cap. You can't properly tighten down the cap as it pops loose again when tightened.

£50 for a bit of plastic christ.

I have a euro car parts one. Been on since august '17 and have been absolutely fine. Still looks clean and white even now. Think I paid £15? Just make sure you keep the original lid and use that as the ecp one isn't as good.
