Oil catch tank system
The PCV valve in 2.0 TFSI engine is known as a "faulty point". It passed through the many revisions, but none of them is sufficiently reliable - especially for tuned engines.
The oil catch tank system cancels this valve and improve overall reliability of the engine. Its removes aerated oil so that it can be drained and recycled.
There is a many such systems in the market. I chose the product from Forge Motorsport.
The quote from the products web-page:
"It will capture all of the aerated oil, fuel, and water vapour contained in the blow-by gasses that would otherwise enter the intake tract and potentially contribute to deposits on the intake valves, thereby keeping the intake system clean and the engine performing optimally long-term."
The installation process is very easy as "plug and play".
Forge oil catch tank system comes with detailed fitment instructions and has a decent quality of all components.
There is two types of this product: for vehicles with(European standard) and without(North America) charcoal filter. You need to choose one that suitable for your vehicle.
