hi all

just popped the leading edge bladder in my 07 havoc and was wondering if any one has had to change one before with the one pump system?

ive been told that you can get it plastic welded but it seems like replacing the whole thing is a better way to go.

any advice or tips etc will be appreciated.

depends on the type of pop, if its small then repairing is easiest.

How big is the pop ? Fix it yourself if you can ..... Though removing a one pump bladder is no easy task ... get a pal who has done it before if you can, it will save a lot of frustration. But if you can fix it yourself ... then when you are away one time ... and she goes down ... you dont have to throw a wobbly

Happy Days
