Replacement Tire Sealant inquiry
I just noticed my 2013 Boxster S's Tire sealant had expired on 04/2016, (assuming that's what the date in the image means.) It should be replaced every 4 years.
The part number is at the bottom of the label, and is shared with Audi and VW.
Anything for sale with this number must be way out of date.
There seems to've been a couple part number updates since mine was manufactured. This is a [I]600[/I] ml bottle. The websites of Suncoast, Pelican, etc. have "official" and otherwise products, but are either vague about the amount, are [i]700[/I] ml (that could be a fitment problem,) and none make a note of the stuff being fresh. I could call the retailers, but wonder if they'll be too happy to say it's recently made, or "yes, it's 600 ml," only to receive the wrong size, or that it expires in 6 months. I know the two retailers mentioned are reputable, but don't want to deal with a PIA return on the wrong product.

So, I'm looking for recommendations, including vouchers for Suncoast and Pelican.
