Default Oil catch tank.

Right....I installed a small oil catch tank. Just to check results....and YES it catches oil. The system is still 100% sealed and goes back as normal. It only catches OIL in the tank and stops SOME of the oil to be sucked back in to the intake system. See attached foto of oil caught after a 750km drive on the highway. Will catch more in town driving. So in my opinion....YES it works...I would rather have the oil in the catch can....than back in the engine...as I am planning to drive this XC90 untill the wheels fall off....lol
