Thanks for the excellent write-up. I'll rest easier knowing that I can alway do a search for this "if" I ever need to replace those o-rings...

$0.77 cents for the larger one and $0.74 for the small one direct from my local dealership. No shipping. Tax of a few cents

It might take a few days to clear up after you change them. Took about 3 drives and 200 miles for mine to clear up completely. Now I just gotta figure out if the bleeder valve is suppose to be up all the time since that is what happening now. Nothing is leaking and temp holding so I assume its right, but who knows haha.

Let me know if you have any questions or need help.
