- I knew this problem would eventually come.. so here it is, i was prepared, and i'm ready to share my thoughts on the topic. Since there are no new parts available for the Frontera, i looked around and i found that a new expansion tank will fit from an old Kadette, what part is still available new. An Ascona C expansion tank would also fit, but this was faster to arrive. Part numbers in the video, so as the process of fitting it. Cheers 🍻

maybe there are other options that with a T-couple in the coolant return may be functional for the frontera's, but requiere study of sizes/racors
I'm sure there are plenty other options, but this is the most cheap and simple there is, unless you find an original one 😀 for every other solution you need something extra, like couplers, extra hoses, redirecting the flow, etc. This is as simple as it gets, and simplicity is always just as important as the solution itself 🥂

Hey there. And how did it work after all? Is the tank too small or it's OK?
Hey! It was doing just fine, there was a little less place for the coolant to expand to when warm, so with the new tank the max. "cold" level was about at ¼th full, that way it was happy without any refilling needed
@@ThePeca1988 Awesome. Many thanks for the answer!!
Works well long term?
It works fine, this hack is approved 👌
