Disappointingly Poor Performance of Aluminum Expansion Tank

After trying this automotive replacement part, I can't say that it was worth the price. The pros were hard to find since my engine didn't cool down any better than before but the cons included an odd smell and overall lackluster performance. Perhaps it would be better to look elsewhere for a coolant expansion that actually does what it's supposed to do.

Pros
  • Durable and high quality construction with aluminum material, allowing for long-lasting use.
Cons
  • Potentially difficult to install for those with limited experience or knowledge of car mechanics.

A great way to dress up the engine compartment.

Great looking product and fit, mine broke installing it. One of the fittings must have been weak, I think maybe it's just broken. My other Mishimoto products have been reliable. I've ordered a replacement and see if the second one has the same problem.

Pros
  • Coolant Rebuild Kits
Cons
  • Basically ok but...

It doesn't match the stock air intake

If it matched the factory it would be 5 stars but it doesn't and it's FUN so get 3 stars. I thought about making my own mount. to move it the SMALL amount it needs to move. But instead I changed my air intake. All you had to do was cut off A CORNER of it to get the factory settings. How difficult is it? Made a chamfer on one corner. In earnest. A CORNER. Pathetic design. Otherwise not bad.

Pros
  • Automotive
Cons
  • Useless features
