It`s always a toss up. My first (genuine Porsche) tank lasted about 13 years. An aftermarket (inferior? maybe) unit may only last 6, or not. It took me a few hours to change the part. Okay, I'm an artist, not a neurosurgeon. I don't make $100/hour. There's always a s*load of parts to change on these cars. It's a plastic bottle. Were I to do it again (God forbid) I know what I would choose.
But that's me.
BTW, it's not fun, changing the part, but it doesn't take more than a few hours.
