I don't think the emission standard in the US is as tough as here in the EU hence the presence of it (charcoal cannister) on EU cars.

john_o:
so whats the concensus , should we be doing this?
The amount of fluid in those pics is  :surprised:

I think it is.  I have being looking at all these threads for over a year now, so I have put alot of thought into the PCV system on my car,  and what it is doing to it.  It is only there to make the tree huggers happy.  On my car, it sometimes feels so smooth to drive and other times it seems to be holding back and not as sharp.  I put this down to the PCV system and the cold weather.  Did to see all the water mixed in with the oil after they drained the catch can.  People put this down to cars in colder climates.  To me, this is what makes my car feel the way is does at this time of year.  Come spring all my little running problems that I have over the winter months just vanish like nothing was ever wrong.  It has been like this for the past 3 years.

I originally put the EJ fix to see if it solves a slight boost loss.  I noticed  the PVC being either blocked or having the EJ fix on a few cars at GTI Inters this year.  The BSH is the newest and latest one time fix for it and looks good.  I am tempted to so it just to solve the problem once and for all.
