Upgrade Your BMW with ECS Baffled Oil Catch Can

Modern emission regulations require a closed PCV/Breather system for cleaner operation. However, inefficient oil particle capture can lead to excessive oil vapor ingestion, causing carbon buildup, reduced performance, and fuel economy. ECS Tuning's updated ECS Baffled Oil Catch Can, now with an easy-to-empty 1/4" drain fitting, is engineered to collect toxic blow-by gases, minimize carbon deposits, and reduce oil contamination within engine oil. Recirculating oil vapor ensures emissions compliance without venting to the atmosphere.

  • Key Features:
  • Highly Efficient Oil Separator: Strategically positioned 4 chamber baffle system maximizes oil/air separation and minimizes oil droplets in the intake tract.
  • Integrated Dipstick: Knurled and black anodized oil dipstick simplifies oil volume inspection.
  • Reservoir: Available in 6oz or 8oz capacity with a 1/4" NPT drain plug fitting.
  • Serviceable: Easily removable baffle plates and drain plug for cleaning.
  • Easy/Customizable Installation: Combine with the ECS Universal Bracket Kit for simplified installation and adjustable mounting locations.
  • Leak-Free Fittings: Machined -10AN ORB (O-Ring Boss) fittings available for secure connections (fittings sold separately).

Fix oil leaks on your BMW's passenger side engine with Turner Motorsport's CPV O-ring replacement. The O-ring failure in the CPV typically leads to slow oil leaks, and now you can address this issue at a fraction of the cost by replacing the O-ring instead of the entire CPV. Unlike the OEM Buna rubber, the new Viton Fluoroelastomer used in this O-ring is resistant to higher temperatures, ensuring prolonged life without leaks.

  • Cost-effective solution for oil leaks on the passenger side of the engine
  • Replaces the CPV O-ring without replacing the entire CPV
  • Viton Fluoroelastomer resistant to higher temperatures
  • Prolonged life without leaks
  • Addresses O-ring failure due to heat cycling and oil exposure
