Title: HBV Part number ?
Post by: DrAndyB on 24 June 2023, 19:07:06

Any recommended part number for the HBV for a 2000 Vplate 2.5 V6 manual ?

Mine has a weep :( but has lasted 23 years !!! :D

Can get from the Dealer ?

The Omega versions were all superseded by the Vectra part 95517483. The only difference is that the Vectra version has a curtain shroud around the vacuum port. Otherwise it's identical as to function and fit. Good for any Omega B or B2.

A genuine GM part has been hard to come by for some years. However the ones here seem to be good quality (https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/283674144691), at least the last one I bought was. Looked to be a genuine part.

Many thanks and good to know.  I'll order one and try the Dealer on the off chance.

I guess its the same for coolant expansion tank, hard to come by ?  Mine is original and a bit brown with iffy coolant sensor was was looking to change to a new one but quick search looks hard to find unless there are any recommendations for that as well ??

TIA.  :y

I looked recently  for a new one and the only one I could find did not have a level  monitor . I had to find a second hand one.

I found this new tank https://www.autodoc.co.uk/aic/16115696 (https://www.autodoc.co.uk/aic/16115696) and looks the same with sensor, but it says not suitable for the car - Odd.

I'll stick with old one for now then unless get lucky and one pops up.

If you do find a new tank without the cap, don't get a cheap cap I had a cheap one for my Vectra and it disintegrated pretty quickly. Got a good one, no problem.

Noted  :y

I'll leave the header tank then.  HBV as per link earlier ordered so hopefully that will last the same 23 years the other one did !  :D
