Coolant Leak From Expansion Bottle Level Sensor

Recommended Posts

2052006

Got a slight weep from the level sensor in my phase 2 bottle. I presume there is a rubber seal on the sensor as it enters the bottle. I've looked on Servicebox, but can't for the life of me find the sensor, to see if the seal can be bought separately. Anyone know?

 

Failing that, any tips for bodging it?

Don't recall any seals being available for them seperatly

It's just an o ring that seals it. Remove the sensor, remove o ring, measure and replace :)

I had the same issue with mine a while back.

 

The o ring had perished and I bought a cheap kit from eBay which had the right size in it.

Not sure if ptfe tape would work in this instance, there are no threads. Anyway, the old o ring appears to have failed, so replaced it with a couple that I found in the garage, it seemed to hold water on testing it, so with any luck, that will sort it.
