Water Tank Sender failure
« on: 12 March 2011, 14:48:02 »

The sender on my water header tank has failed giving me a warning message 'water level low'. My local garage tells me that they can only buy the complete tank at a cost of £40. Does anybody have an alternative solution?

Hi
I brought one last week for about £25 plus VAT at the local Vauxhall Garage
5 Minutes to change.

You can get them new from Vauxhall for about £30. It isn't worth fitting a secondhand one  ;)

When reading this please bear in mind that Daz likes them to be pristine white!  ::)
Can however recommend him for timing belts and intelligent chat, a top quality mechanic.  :y
