This is not a probability of success.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Mine has finally started leaking a little as theres a small spot on the drive just under the left exhaust. Is it an easy job to change or should i go to a garage to get it done? If i take off the big plastic thing at the front can i get to it? Im guessing its the air filter box.

POST 2Original post

Here you go: http://www.renntech.org/forums/tutorials/article/44-replacing-the-coolant-reservoir-on-a-my99-996/ You won't have the air pump on yours - only US cars had them for MY1999.

POST 4Original post

Hi I didn't try the job but my Indi took about 2.5 hours to do it . He charged 254.00 total. The part was 78.00.

POST 6 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Do you think its worth me ordering a new pressure relief valve as well as it seems to have quite a lot of residue on the top so im not sure wether its sealing again properly.

POST 7Original post

The pressure relief valve comes with the new tank.

POST 8 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Ok thanks that could have been £40 wasted [ ].
