Oil Catch tank HELP!!

MM'08_350Z · 03-03-2016, 11:27 AM

Hey guys, I have had my Twin Turbo HR for about 5 months already but only 900 miles on the build. Yesterday I dropped my phone under the car I the garage, and as I reached for my phone I noticed the under carriage was wet. So touched it and it was oil, I put the car on Jack stands and removed the front bumper and Z speed shield and started cleaning everything to look for leaks. I found nothing!!! I looked inside my oil catch can and found not one single drop of oil I there!!! 😁😁 so I follow both hoses that go into the catch can and they both go to the PCV valves on the valve covers and that's it, I believe the catch can is done wrong what do you guys think and where else does it need to have hoses to go to the catch can. Because it is coming out but messing up all of my passenger side undercarriage. Anyone with VQ35HR/37VHR catch can experience I need help.

Did you have a shop do the work? If so, I'd take it back to the shop (or at least a competent shop that could give you a second opinion). If I were capable of installing it myself, I'd do some research and figure out what I did wrong

Well the master tech said that we need to remove the PCV valve because it's got a check valve preventing the vapors to come out. So we need to replace it with a flow through PCV valve. Sink went ahead left my car there and going to have them up the boost a bit to hit 1000whp and get this Z over with already. The oil under the car was due to one of the passenger side turbo oil lines.
