[Smily]

What do you want to replace it with?

[rudiger]

i was going to replace it with this BSH PCV Bulletproof PCV Revamp S1 [FSI-PCV-S1] - $119.00 : Dub Ad·dic·tion [duhb uh-dik-shuhn]

[Transporter]

That could work, if you have oil contaminating intake system.
Ask if someone here already installed it in their car?

[Smily]

That one there seems to be the preferred replacement. I havent done it yet.

But have heard good things about it.

I think your in the clear mate.

Hi there.. I have the Stage 2+ BSH kit with catch can. Havent had any issues so far and ive had it on for about 12,000km, apart from the damn catch can not being compatible with australian delivered cars because of the charcoal filter. Had to have the charcoal cannister relocated to fit the can.

hi my original PCV valve ruptured yesturday and was going to go for the rev amp kit....but my mechanic didn't like the way they block off the holes....he'd prefer the catch can kit....so now i have replaced with a new original and maybe later will install a catch can kit.

im waiting until the 3 month stat warrent is up, then im going to buy the pcv revamp stage 2 kit upgrade with the catch can, as i already have bought the stage 1 kit.
so what did you have to do to your catch can nabz

[NabzGTI]

the BSH catch can kit was made to fit the left hand drive GTI's from America. In the Australian cars, we have a charcoal cannister where the can is supposed to go. I had my charcoal cannister relocated on top of the wheel arch under the bonnet. You will need to get new hoses (longer than standard) to be able to relocate it.

If you have room elsewhere under the hood, you can relocate it anywhere.
