It gave up the ghost the other night . The wife and I were out to eat and an older lady who had seen us pull up came in and found us , she said , theres a bunch of stuff coming out under the front of your little red car , I knew immediately what it was . I had it towed to a shop I use , picked it up yesterday . He told me he just fixed one with the same problem , he sees quite a few apparently . Oh well , thats one less known issue Ill have to worry about , now , onto the next one ! whatever that may be .

New one on mine last year, but at 18 years old and over 100k miles I think it had lasted well. Only a month later I had to fit a new one on my Mercedes E class. Not a leaking tank, but the sensor inside it on the merc had failed. It was easy and cheap to simply change the tank.

I have one on the shelf in the garage waiting for the day mine gives up.
