SV6 Oil Catch Can

[VS_Pete]

Just ordered an Elite from their website including LFX bracket for our 2012 SV6 Sportwagon.

From TUFF?

Thanks for all the info and pics. I liked that position but back to the drawing board for me. Looks like the 2011 LLT has to got on other side of motor. Thats where the hose is anyways.

Umm I am pretty sure you mount it on the same side as the LFX where the ECM is located. A mate of mine has a 2011 SV6 series 2 with the LLT SIDI engine and that's where he's is mounted. You might have the wrong PCV hose. I'll see if I can get him to post up a pic.

Here is how I have mounted mine on the LLT V6.











Above pic is where I bolted the mount. I used the bolt that holds the engine cover pin, I also spaced it out with a washer.
Use the mount that comes with the can, just cut it off to clear as it's too long then lock tight the bolt.



Oil collected.

Cheers, now I get it. Couldn't see what was at the fire wall end and can't find a good manual to clarify what's what. Will order a can from Tuff site as a bit cheaper than ebay. USA is no cheaper due to shipping.

Just fitted a catch can to my SV6 2008 Its a Saikou Michi CO After about 2,000ks had about 10 mls of oil in can. My litres per 100ks has gone from 11.4 down to 8.4 best thing I have done the Inlet manifold had always have oil In the plastic tubing and throttle body. The motor has done 57,400klms. This catch can has a baffle Inside the can the company make to order approx $80.00 each plus postage cheaper if buying more than one.Their email address Is [email protected]

Was that can much cheaper than Elite $220 odd shipped from Vic. Looks to be a comparable size. Not too big like other brands. Did you get it from USA.
