Product Description

Keep your Volkswagen's engine cooling system operating reliably with this Moca Expansion Tank with Sensor Hole. This cooling water bottle is designed to safely store and manage coolant as it expands and contracts during engine operation. Featuring a dedicated hole for a sensor, it allows for proper monitoring of coolant levels to help prevent overheating.

This expansion tank is compatible with selected Volkswagen models. It is important to check your vehicle's model, year, engine size, and engine code to ensure correct fitment before ordering. The tank includes a large threaded fill port and multiple outlet tubes to connect seamlessly with your vehicle’s existing cooling system.

Common symptoms of a failing expansion tank include visible coolant leaks, low coolant warnings, overheating, or cracks in the reservoir. You may also notice steam from the engine bay, fluctuating temperature gauge readings, or the coolant level sensor triggering warnings.

If your expansion tank is damaged or leaking, it should be replaced promptly to avoid costly engine damage. Always inspect the tank and sensor hole for signs of wear or cracks, especially if experiencing cooling system issues.
