haha... ok.. what do u want us to do about it? the one you got now, works right? then i don't see any problems.

 

When you do a timing belt and water pump change, you end up changing the coolant too. Some people/shops like to change the radiator cap when they do a coolant change as well.

jbkiksass69, no need to be a dick.

When you had a radiator cap that was for show for 60.00 and you have a 2.00 one on there now it's not just a little thing.

Thanks bro appreciate the reply. I guess it makes sense...Caps go bad after a while?

 

some caps go bad but the one you had is highly unlikely to go bad.

Yeah, I really haven't heard of OEM caps ever going bad, but it just might be that shop's policy.

Probably trashed.

 

did you ask them why they replaced it? Not a big deal if it was defective.
