Product Description

This Moca expansion tank is a crucial component in the cooling system of Volkswagen vehicles. As a cooling water bottle, it stores excess coolant and allows for thermal expansion as the engine heats up, helping to maintain optimal pressure and fluid levels within the system. Designed for Volkswagen models, this tank features a translucent plastic reservoir with multiple hose connection ports and integrated mounting tabs for secure installation.

Fitment is specific to Volkswagen vehicles, including the Transporter T5 and T6 series from 2003 to 2022. Always confirm your vehicle's model, year, engine size, and engine code before ordering to ensure compatibility.

Common symptoms of a faulty expansion tank include visible coolant leaks, a drop in coolant level, overheating, warning lights on the dashboard, and visible cracks or discolouration on the tank itself. You may also notice a sweet smell from leaking coolant or steam from the engine bay.

If you experience any of these issues, it is important to inspect and replace the expansion tank promptly to avoid further damage to your engine. Regular checks are recommended, especially on older vehicles or if you notice any signs of coolant loss or overheating.
