Has anyone used these generic catch cans....like this http://m.ebay.co.uk/itm/Racing-Oil-Catch-Tank-CAN-Reservoir-Turbo-Billet-Turbo-Engine-Blue-Car-For-FORD-/152330254797?hash=item23779739cd:g:lJcAAOSwj85YNtLo&_trkparms=pageci%3A85fd8954-b3ca-11e6-b8c3-005056b62981%7Cparentrq%3Aa05eae5e1580a2aba43d9930ffed079c%7Ciid%3A3
Are they any good? my astra 1.7 cdti (108k)is leaking oil out the turbo inlet, I have found it is coming from the breather, I thought it maybe the breather diaphragm as it had gone pretty brittle, however it and the spring aren't available separately (have to buy entire cam cover), best I could do is find a more pliable one at scrappy which made little difference. So was considering just putting a catch can between breather and turbo inlet. The oil leaking out the turbo is minimal but makes a mess and would rather try and sort it (the symptom, appreciate cause is likely bigger problem like blow by but not worth £ sorting that, runs ok with no fault codes)
