I have a Provent200 fitted. But I haven't yet fitted something under it to collect the oil. I just checked it and after 2months on the filter has just started to oil up. So what do others have?

Thanks.

I plan on fitting a provent one day with a one way valve.
Like this.

So it returns to the sump

when i fitted mine i just run a piece of hose down to the chasis rail to under the passenger side door
where there is a bracket,poked the hose in there with a garden hose snap fitting,put a plastic tap on
out of a twenty ltr bottle works realy well and out of the way

Just has my own disappearing post..dunno what happened there?...I uninstalled the catch can today because I still have oil in intecooler after 5000 km of running. Blocked intake pipe off with a bolt and ran the PVC through an extended rubber hose below the car , behind front wheel, along same lines as Roofy. If more oil is apparent at next service it's gotta be the turbo...time will tell, but fingers are crossed .
Cheers
