Catch can worth it? Bad PCV

[whitegtimk7]

So i’m at about 7500 miles on my 2020 gti and just about before 3000 miles my pcv has been dumping oil back into the intake causing me to have to refill some oil every once in awhile. I keep seeing how everyone says the facts pcv is amazing with no problems but maybe mine is broken?

So my question is, does anyone think that a catch can would be worth it or should i have the dealership just replace it since I’m still under warranty.
Also i’m stage 2 with catted downpipe

In a straight line or after aggressive cornering?

Upgrading to a OCC that replaces the stock PCV, like the Spulen catch can, is really only for people with BT setups and/or people that track their car a lot. For your situation and since it's still under warranty, have the dealership replace the PCV.

Are you guys certain a warranty applies if the PCV is at fault here? Given the stage 2 and increased pressure?

not entirely sure but it’s worth a shot. i can always tell them not to scan the computer since legally i’m pretty sure they have to do what the customer says

you can't tell them not to scan the computer. I mean you could tell them. But it doesn't mean anything.

why not?

cause that's not how warranty work works, and there is no law against them scanning your car or doing what you say

I think they should cover it under warranty bc PCV has been strong on many tuned cars with stock turbos, but will they use it as a way to make you pay out of pocket... probably.

Just order the BL revision of the PCV and replace it yourself. It took 30 min.

Have you pulled coils and plugs to confirmed it's the PCV and not something like a bad cam cradle seal?
