Rob Thomson 6 Posted July 22, 2008 Chaps, I need to replace the brake reservoir on my GTi. It's disgustingly dirty but more importantly it's distorted around the neck and I don't think it seals properly as a consequence. There's only one shown on ServiceBox (Part No. 4635 50), but it doesn't look right. Can anyone confirm that's the one for the GTi? It's only £5.26 so much better than getting one from a scrappy etc. Many thanks, Rob. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hengti 2 Posted July 22, 2008 alright Rob? i did renew mine not long before i broke the car but can't find the receipt for it; seem to remember it was more like £15 so not sure if you've the right one there - ? i've actually still got it (attached to a M/C and with a renewed cap, too) - if you're ever passing again, you'd be welcome to it (free) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rob Thomson 6 Posted July 22, 2008 Hi, Thanks for the offer - I might take you up on that if I can't get one from the dealer. Cheers, Rob. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rob Thomson 6 Posted July 22, 2008 I've had another look on Servicebox. Bizarrely the reservoir for the 309 has the same part number but looks correct in the pic. For £5 I'll order one and see what happens. If it's wrong I'll sell it on eBay as an upgraded part for £735. Cheers, Rob. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Alastairh 47 Posted July 22, 2008 Nice one. I could do with a STD 205 one actually as it happens. Should save me the time and not going to the scrappy. Al Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GLPoomobile 958 Posted July 22, 2008 I'll check when I get home as I bought one last week. Was about 5 quid. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GLPoomobile 958 Posted July 22, 2008 Rob, 463550 is correct and is 4.48 before VAT. The shape is correct but they look slightly lower quality than the OE ones. The original has symbols moulded in the top which the new one does not, and they are different inside. Still fine though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
