Warning - Expansion Tank Failures!

Check your Alfa Romeo's Expansion Tank Condition (Coolant overflow bottle).  We have found that these can fail with as little as 35, 000 kilometres on the clock. Look for signs of the plastic going a lighter colour and if you can see what looks like pink dust underneath or around  the expansion tank then your alfa is starting to leak! 

Signs of imminent tank failure can start at

Stelvio Under 20,000 KMS

Giulia  Under 20,000 KMS

Giulietta  From 35,000 KMS 

Mito From 35,000 KMS
