HOW TO INSTALL AN OIL CATCH CAN ON YOUR BMW (Mishimoto N55 Direct Fit)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 18 вер 2019
- For this 1 series track inspired build we decided to try out the mishimoto n55 direct fit oil catch can. Installing an oil catch can allows the intake to burn less blow by and keep the valves cleaner. It's great to install a catch can soon after a walnut blast to keep direct injection engines intake valves clean. We ran into a few issues with the install but for the most part it is "direct fit". This DIY can be used on most n55 engines but we are installing it on a 2012 BMW 135i with the N55 engine.

One minute in and this guy explained all of my questions
he doesn't answer any questions he rather charges we already paying by subscribing to his channel and putting the thumbs up n he still wants to charge us more that's some BS
Totally appreciate your critique of the Mishimoto catch can. Direct-Fit should mean, "direct-fit" lol... Nice video!!
Very helpful, learned a lot from this guy.
Very helpful!
If you struggle with the four clips on the PCV hose, you can cut up a small zip tie and wedge it under each clip, then just pull. For me it was the only thing that worked.
You also don't need to remove the cabin air filter or cowl for this job
On second thought, if you're just going to cut off the hose, you may be able to just leave both ends connected
great vid!! thank you!
you might be able to use two hose claps, one to either side of the of the pressure line to tighten and just slightly squish the hose reducing the hose height and allowing the pressure line to fall into place better - unless of course there is a reason to keep the hose perfectly round.
Thanks for the video. Where do I get the same one that you are demonstrating with because it will be easier to install as it has a ready made bracket?
you can use a "U" turn connected from that heater to the catch can made from copper fittings and use 2 small pieces of hose..... instead of a long and twisted hose
literally wish all videos were this informative
You are like midas!🤘
The n55 engine hardly spills oil through the vent hose. When i did a full valve cover replacement as i took that side turbo vent hard plastic pipe where he routed the long hose. I removed that small crankcase vent hose that he sliced on both ends to attach both hoses and looked inside the that intake pipe where it connects. I notice it very clean with just very very noticable thin line of oil dripping but the whole pipe was clean. This means that the previous owner who already had put in 80k miles on it never took the turbo charge pipe off nor inspect it because i replaced the oil licking Vale cover for the first time. So yes the n55 really doesn't need an oil catch can!
BMW solved that n54 oil engine problem with the upgraded n55 engine!
If you have a n55, remove the MAP sensor. Check and see if there is any oil on it. If there is then a oil catch can is needed. BMW didn’t solve much issues by upgrading to the N55, just created new ones
@@thefuzzyfupa1 explain why. The guy above made his point...
, the M52 has an additional vacuum line attached to the Fuel Pressure Regulator. Has any one done a catch can on an m52? If so, how did you tie in the Fuel Pressure Regulator vacuum line
Very informative video, as always. I don't even own the car and I still watch.
Haha I appreciate it man!
Hi, Do you have any clip how to install oil Catch can on the X1E84 or maybe if you have just drawing from where to where please.
Very interesting video, can you tell me what is the preferred mileage to install that kit, my n55 still under 50 000 miles is it due?
Would you be so kind to demonstrate how to do it on e46? Thanks.
Pleaseee make a walnut blast video for n55
Rather than do another video for alternatives on the N55, can you do one on setting up a catch can on an N54? I have seen a lot of stuff where people slap one on between the flapper tube and the intake in the back, but as I understand it there is an internal port "machined" in the valve cover which is where most of the oil blow-by / carbon build up comes from. From what I have also seen, there are a few videos on how to plug up those ports but it would be great to see a start to finish video from someone like you who is not just tinkering on a one-time hobby.
do you advise to put this in n52 engine specifically the one with magnesium cover
Just installed the same setup on my n55. But the catch can makes a very loud whistling noise when driving. Any ways to silence the whistle?
Do you know if that application will fit on the E70 X5 N63?
brother can we reduce the size of the diameter hose without issue i dont speak about the fittments but just the internal and external size ?
Nice video guys. Bit of a bummer for a $200 Mishimoto kit. It should fit perfectly! Please do your $30 setup occasionally. Thanks in advance, Dutch regards.
8:52 can you flip that connector around so its like straight to catch can?
Great video! Would be awesome to see how effective this is after a few thousand miles. I read some forum posts that claimed this was not needed on the N55 motors. But I didn’t see any proof one way or the other. I know the N54 folks benefit a lot from this...
It’s not needed on N55 engines. I’ve seen a video of someone who did a follow up video on how much oil the catch can caught on his N55 and it didn’t get any oil.
Which video had you guys walnut blasting the intake valves?
Do you have a video for 2008 Bmw 550i?
A year later, how did you find it? Was it worth doing?
Is the M54 in BMW X5 '05 petrol a GDI type or Port Injection type?
Can you make a video on install on b48 engines
The removal of the Tank will be alot
Of work for being so expensive it doesn’t look
I love all your videos. Always well explained. Did you make a video of using a $35 Amazon catch can?
More n55 videos please
I installed it works fine. Drive about 40 km 25 miles, and check the tank or container that comes in the decanter and it is almost full. For what is this?
How often would you need to empty the can? Every 1000 tkm or less? Thanks from DE, home of the beemer ;)
Can this help prevent blowing engine seals?
hi dear!! I have got m52tu engine . my ccv have fpr vacuum hose if I delete my ccv then where I can put it in my fpr vacuum hose plz tell me I have done m54 oil cathch can but m52tu engine it has problem the fpr vacuum hose so what am I have to do!!
brother do you already did that on a 635D or 535D i gess is the same ? i dont have idea where to put the catch can.. thank you for your help if you already did that :)
Anyone here has got experience with the freeze-up of the catch can setup in cold climates under short distance usage of the car?
As with the N55 carbon build-up does not seem to be such a great deal as with the N54 it wouldn't be worth the hassle if I seriously risk blocking up the whole ventilation in winter which would cause a real mess.
Does it work on my X5 E70 (2007) N52??
Do you have any experience with E46 diesel engines? Are there specifics I have to take into account? I have an E46 330d, but most videos are about petrol engines.
It’s not available in USA e46 diesel Just e90 facelift come in diesel here
Is there any video how to do it on m54 engine? Mine is exactly m54b22
Watch 50sKid or Nathan’s DIY
Heat gun on to original plastic pipe. Removal much easier.
i own a german made 535xi with the n55 engine. What is the best motor oil for it?
UA-cam-User9999 motul x-cess 5w40 my mhd stage 2 n55 loves it consumes way less oil too
where can i buy this
witch means you loose oil often
Hi!
Do you know it the BMW F20 needs a Oil catch can?
Its a European engine 1.6L 3 cylinder and 110hp
Thank you and cool videos
These engines have direct injection. And because of the turbo, it will definitely reduce carbon build-up. I don't know at what mileage interval BMW does recommend a walnut blast at the 1,6 3 cylinder.....You have to call them. And btw, a walnut blast at the dealership is way too expensive anyway.
@@MrNicoe36cabrio every 30,000 miles
Cut those hoses and make them shorter they are still too long. Should give you more room to get can off
Looks like Mishimoto didn't do much research in the development of this catch can.
M54 still need I think, as the ccv system is crap
Anyone know for certain whether or not this will pass or fail California smog test? With sensor remaining connected I would think there would not be an issue, but would appreciate anyone who can confirm for sure yes/no.
No reason why it shouldn't
How much torque does this add to the motor?
None but it prevents carbon build up in the intake valves.
Why can't you just turn the fitting with the sensor on the intake pipe and turn it around and screw it down and it will be facing the oil catch can so you don't have to use that lond ass hose
now i know all car engineers like all of them all stooped like MB, PORSCHE,AUDI,CRYSLER EVEN ROLLS ROYS NO ONE FIGURE THAT THEY NEED INSTALL SIMPLE OIL CATCH CANS LOL OMG!!!
why cant you just put the brand name in description..
Not a fan Of this catch can .. removal is to much work
Those hoses are too fat and too long. Amazon sells one that is perfect with a dip stick to measure oil catching and small filter if desired. $24 total all aluminum bullet & worth it for the F10 n55 engine!
$200 for this bullshit Mishimoto 😧😦😮😯😲 ... jajajaja 😂 spells "RIP-OFF"
We already paying you by subscribing and give you the thumbs up but you still want to charge us for asking questions SMH
How much did you pay for subscribing?
This is a cheesy 135i....
I hate that these are necessary. Seems like sloppy work from all of these D.I. engines. I think the manufacturer wants to sell intake valve cleaning services.
So much fragile plastic, it's like they want everything to break.
