1.6 Gti Radiator Cap - Where From?

[GTIAlex 0]

Come to the conclusion that my radiator cap needs replacing, ideally want an original quality one.

 

Having trouble tracking one down, local motor factors cant help and the only ones I can find online are ones costing a few quid.

local factors can't help?! WTF!

 

they should be able to help, its just a generic 1 bar bayonet type cap, as used my thousands of French cars.

 

try your local dealer, they're about a tenner.

Got a nice new black plastic Gates expansion tank cap from E-bay recently , about £6 inc P+P .

They look nicer than the metal ones which can rust .There are loads on E-bay .

Go back to your motor factors and get them to have a proper look.

What psi are the mi16/ Peugeot 205 gti ones. I've bought a one made by waxstat rated at lbs.13. Quite an old cap but new.
