Aluminum Oil Catch Can With AN10 Fitting For Volkswagen Golf GTI MK7 1.8T
Prevent harmful oil vapor accumulation in your intake with this 1100ml aluminum oil catch can, precision-engineered for Volkswagen Golf GTI Mk7 and Mk7.5 variants powered by the 1.8L or 2.0L TSI/TFSI EA888 Gen 3 platform. Factory PCV routing recirculates crankcase gases, but unburned lubricants and carbon particulates inevitably accumulate on intake valves, intercoolers, and mass airflow sensors. Intercepts these contaminants at the source, restoring factory airflow dynamics and protecting sensitive electronics from sludge buildup.
Machined from lightweight aluminum and finished with a corrosion-resistant black coating, the reservoir houses an internal air diverter that increases residence time for rising vapors, significantly improving phase separation. Standard AN10 inlet and outlet threads simplify hose routing, while the adaptable universal mounting bracket accommodates diverse engine bay geometries without permanent modifications.
Benefits & Maintenance Recommendations
- Preserves stable octane levels by stopping oil aerosols from mixing with fresh charge air, which actively reduces pre-detonation likelihood under heavy throttle.
- Maintenance is rapid: periodically drain collected fluid and flush the internal filter mesh to keep vacuum draw consistent.
- Install the unit as high as possible within the engine bay to leverage gravity drainage and minimize liquid carryover.

Fitment & Assembly Notes
Vehicle Restriction:This catch tank is calibrated specifically for standard Golf GTI models utilizing the EA888 Gen 3 MQB drivetrain. It does not fit Golf R applications due to altered breather routing and manifold geometry. Installation Requirement:The package contains only the capture vessel. Compatible PCV tubing, O-rings, or crossover adapter kits must be obtained separately to complete a functional bypass loop.
