x-type coolant tank issue
good morning all, its been a while since i've been on. two teenaged girls, i have to fight for computer time in between running them all over town.
also the jag has been in the body shop for a couple weeks thanks to a work truck backing into me, about 5 grand in damages. i will try to post a pic.
i do have a guestion about my 2002 x-type 3.0
i had a leak in the coolant tank and replaced last year. replaced with a used one as it was all i could find at the time. i has now started leaking. i found a new one to replace it with, but before i do an damage another one, is there something i should look for as the cause or is this something that happes often. i did see the same stress fractures on both tanks in the same places- right on the inner seal were they are joined.
what do you think.

About the expansion tank, I've not heard of a problem between the top and bottom halves. I think most of the problems have been with the nipple on the passenger side of the tank where the return hose from the front of the engine attaches. That's where mine failed. I got my replacement from Pit Stop Auto Parts for $97.80.
