Expansion Tank S70R

**Storm-Troll** · Sunday 8th March 2009, 08:57

Hey Ppl.. Does Anyone happen to either have a spare Expansion Tank laying around they dont need or can recommend a good place I can get one for a P reg S70R. I was meant to go see my son today in Dover but just had the Red Radiator light come on and so checked and have seen i have a small Crack in the top of the expansion tank. soooo dont want to risk running the old girl dry and damaging the engine soooo I have a week to find a new one so I can go to kent and play with the earthquakes..... if anyone can help or advice. would be most appreciative...

have a nice day ya'll......ST

Im guessing that the 'R' will share the same tank as any other Volvo
from the same stable?

If thats the case,then im sure between Niles & myself we could source one
from our friendly local Volvo breakers & pop it in the post.

NILES get on the phone to that knob end in Broadstairs
double quicktime

Cheers Snoops.. your a good man. I was all set to leave at 8am and head down your way. but thought best not to push it with the distance i have to cover. not worth causin more damage for the price of a tank. being as its such a nice day was gonna Bell u while down there see if you wanted to take the 450d out for a play again. but will have to take a rain check on that till next weekend if ur about.... see if we can get the little ones more muddy than the time before lol.... if u can find anything out from your broadstairs source. u have my number if u wanna buzz me. then saves me tryin to order one up here too...regards matey... and NILES is a man of leasure right now so He probably still snug in his pit...lol
