Most factory vehicles do not come with an oil catch can installed by default. Automakers typically rely on the Positive Crankcase Ventilation (PCV) system to manage blow-by gases, rather than incorporating a separate catch can. However, some high-performance and specialty vehicles may include oil separation systems that function similarly to an oil catch can.
Examples of Factory-Installed Oil Separation Systems
- Ford Mustang GT500 – Some models feature an integrated oil separator to reduce carbon build-up.
- Chevrolet Corvette Z06 – Uses an oil separator system to manage blow-by gases in high-performance applications.
- Dodge Hellcat Models – Some versions include an oil separator to improve engine longevity.
- BMW M Series – Certain M models have built-in oil separation systems to enhance performance.
- Mercedes-AMG Performance Models – Some AMG engines incorporate oil separation technology to reduce intake contamination.
While these systems are not traditional oil catch cans, they serve a similar purpose by preventing excessive oil vapors from entering the intake system.
