If it does leak, what a friggin’ mess, so it’s a bit of prevention from my point of view. No downside except the cost for the part. Installation in an hour. That’s it.
Ya I got mine this morning. I agree, preventative maintenance.
I guess I'll have a 22k plastic unit for sale. Never leaked yet. But we don't get the crazy hot days here they do in the southern states.
If it's 90f here that considered HOT. But I'm also along termer on this car so figured WTF. Can't hurt and can only add to the reliability long term.
It'll will be installed in about 2 months.
