Oil Catch Can

[Mkai0]

Is anyone ever going to build a direct fit catch can for the F10 M5? It's sad when most high performance direct injected vehicles these days have plenty of aftermarket support in the catch can arena. I'm tired of cleaning engine oil out of my charge pipes. I can only imagine over time what it is doing to my engine. Someone please build one, as I know others would buy, and they wouldn't be hard to sell.

RK autowerks and user allmotor_2000 said they'd work on a setup if demand was high. Maybe contact them? My car does not consume excessive oil, but I remember when I installed my RK intakes last year, there was slight oil residue on the passenger intake pipe.

Raza said he would consider building a kit. Mine doesnt consume excess oil, but there was still some oil blow by in my charge pipes the last few times I checked. I'm very picky about this car, and not keen on having a shop custom fab me one just yet. The new CTS-V owners have a plethora of catch cans to choose from, to include a dual catch can setup.

Just had my Hot-film air mass meter replaced, tech said it was soiled with oil residue. I too would install a catch can

The MAFs are upstream of the PCV... catch can won’t help your problem. Likely oil from K&N or something else.

Check for oil on turbo inlets...

What tune and air intakes are you using ?

I am totally stock except for charcoal filter delete. I just had one of my valve cover gaskets replaced, could that some how gotten oil in the maf?

I also burn oil like a sieve, one quart every 650 miles or so.

Seems excessive!

Not according to bmw, they allow 1.5 liters per 1,000 km, or roughly 421 miles per quart before they will take action.
