    Heater matrix O-rings

    I've been putting off replacing the thermostat and coolant sensor but the weather is improving, so I'll drain all the coolant and flush the system, and treat the car to a new heater matrix (just bought).

    It will need new O-rings on the pipes so before I buy 'em from the stealer (3545586 is the number I've been told), does anyone has a spare pair for sale?

    Usually the o rings come with the matrix. I bought some separately but I have no idea where they are now. Still in the plastic bag - but never used them as my new matrix came with them in the box. Double check your box.

    Thanks Dave. I asked the vendor when I bought the heater core online today, and he said no O-rings come with it - but I will check the box when it arrives just in case the O-ring Elves have intervened!

    I bought mine from parts for volvo and it said no o rings in box. But they were inside when I opened it. I do have some somewhere as I bought some thinking I needed them.

    Maybe I'm creating a problem that won't be there then - thanks!

    Nice saffy C70 by the way.
