The recommended replacement interval on the coolant expansion tank on the E46/E53/E83 is 100,000 miles. We feel if you have over 100k miles on your coolant expansion tank, you are on very borrowed time - with a failure likely eminent. When the expansion tank fails, it will crack, leak coolant, cause overheating, and leave you stranded on the side of the road. Don't let this happen to your E46!
