Title: FS: 240D oil catch can
Post by: bajacalal on April 21, 2013, 06:18:49 pm
For sale, Mercedes-Benz catch can, from a 240D.

These have come up in various threads here as a solution to oil control problems.

One available, $20 shipped to any U.S. address. International extra. A bit oily but in good condition.

Here are some better pictures.

It's made of some weird construction- a hard plastic bottle with some sort of hard foam molded around it. The cracks you're seeing are only in the foam which is in good condition, it's not breaking up or falling apart or anything. The inlet/outlet ports are about 9/16" diameter.

This is what it looks like on the car these came in:

SOLD.

Leaving this up, for people who may be interested in looking for one of these things.

Also, I can get these pretty regularly if there is enough interest. Does anybody else want this?
