Hi guys, does anyone have any idea what the part is called that the expansion tank joins to at the back of the engine, its a plastic elbow/flange attached to the engine block by 2 bolts.
Car is a c8 2.2 hdi 53 plate.
Mine has given up and has split just above the bottom bolt .
Many thanks in advance.
Citroen c8 coolant leak.

Re: Citroen c8 coolant leak.
Hi and welcome.
Do you have your VIN handy as there are 2 variants with the 2.2 and again with transmission type etc....
It looks suspiciously like the Engine Water Intake Tank to me - Part 3 on the diagram - but would need to confirm once I get your VIN.

Re: Citroen c8 coolant leak.
I would prefer as the parts are all different for the engines and the different cooling systems. Send me a PM if you don't want to post it here - I mask the VINs any way as soon as it arrives. I can get you the part number then and a price.
