Perfect replacement

I purchased this cap along with a replacement coolant reservoir for my 2014 Chevy Cruze 1.4L ECO. The lid fits and works great with the new cistern, it's great value for money.

Pros
  • Automotive
Cons
  • Some trouble

Better than factory new

Excellent product. This cap has better tightness than the factory cap. The original had a conical seal at the top to allow flow in one direction. This seals completely with a conventional O-ring and has a valve that lets water through. Much superior design.

Pros
  • caps
Cons
  • There are disadvantages

Happy if it doesn't break

Disappointed. I've seen a lot of reviews saying this is a great brand. So I bought it. Replaced the cap TWICE because it broke and wouldn't close properly resulting in my coolant bubbling in the reservoir and not holding proper pressure. Finally went to the dealer and had to replace the cap for the third time!

Pros
  • Coolant expansion tank cap
Cons
  • Fits

Solved my problem with the coolant recovery bottle cap

I had a problem with a strong smell of antifreeze after working with my Cruz recently. Under the hood I found the OEM cap had a cross thread so I fixed it. The smell stayed. I replaced the lid with this one and it closed well and the smell was gone. Give it a try, the reservoir was next on the list of things to replace until it stops.

Pros
  • Replacement parts
Cons
  • Hard to tell
