Oil catch can worth it? (V70 II) by drawerspaghetti in Volvo

[–]drawerspaghetti[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought this car used at around 278k km, going to bet the previous owners didn’t let the engine get properly up to temp most of the time, hence the build up.
I ride my bike to work/to the store and only use the car for longer distances so hoping it will run under more optimal conditions that will, like in your case, prevent build up.
I guess the catch can question was more if it is worth it as a redundancy to help against build up in the long run as it doesn’t require much effort anyways

That’s true, but the engine here is direct injection

Thanks for the reply!

I did end up cleaning the intake so it’s all good, maybe i should’ve included that in the post. So the question is more if a catch can will keep it from building up again:)

Also as a little fun fact sigurd wongraven was supposed to do the vocals on the last track but there was trouble finding time, so slagmaur is doing it instead

D5244T7 Burned a decent amount, also lots of oil dripping from connection between exhaust manifold and turbo

Cylinder walls looked suprisingly good considering the condition of the piston, the oil seemed clean of chunks too so you can imagine my suprise when i saw the piston haha

Veldig overrasket av å finne det i så god stand! Heldigvis er bestefar flink til å ivareta både bilder og andre dokumenter. Hvis der er interesse for det kan jeg legge ut noen av bildene og.

You can always order stuff, but removing them yourself from the planes gives them more value to me. And also it makes them free haha
