Indeed 

[05omegav6]

Someone who really needs one asap and who doesn't want to spend £50 at Vauxhall

If you need summat yesterday, then Steve is the person to go to Gives a discount to Oofers as well, so that would be more like £25

Those bottles can crack around the cap, leading to mysterious coolant loss...

If £50 i might stick with my lovely yellow one 

[05omegav6]

Paid £45ish for my last one after Vat

Besides, VX aren't open on Saturday afternoons/Sundays

As said, discolouration is only one reason to change them

[Mr.OmegaMan]

Is that £50 with cap and sensor... Na forget it that's probably just for the bottle 

[05omegav6]

It was one with the sensor Cap is separate and costs another £5 or so

Again, the caps can also fail as they contain a pressure valve

That's not so bad then, don't really fancy puting the old sensor out of what most likely Is the original from new in the current bottle. And AndyC will be cheaper still I'd imagine

The level sensor is integral to the header tank and isn't designed to come out in one piece.

So does the new tank come with the sensor in place just needs plugging in I take it, Just the cap is an optional extra ? 

[05omegav6]

Yes to both

[Mr.OmegaMan]

Yes to both

I would be embarrassed to ask for more than a fiver for that tbh.
