You got your first Thank You, Mr Bogwoppit! (what a great name!).  :drinking:

Do you know yet if you'd have to loosen the P-ring and lift it out to empty?

I will have a look later today, hopefully.

RR I have the larger can fitted, and can get to the drain quite easily to empty.

Aha, I'm going to be contacting you in the not too distant about S3 brakes fitting and arranging to pop over - Can then have a look at the actual bigger catch can.

Meanwhile I'll look at your BSH catch can thread again for pics.

@ stokeballoon:

I've done a Search but can't find any pics of your bigger BSH catch can. Perhaps you haven't posted any. :smiley:

wouldnt recommend the larger catch can RR
the V shape for the 2 tube fixings means the pipes look odd when fitted.
too large for most areas to fit . the dipstick works but a sight glass is better
theres also a 90 deg bend piece for the outlet drain now (not shown in that pic)
Id stick with the smaller version (which I'm now waiting for from dubtek)

Useful advice and info, John  :happy2:

Yes, my reservations about a dipstick method is the potential for losing the vacuum pressure. Also, dipsticks never fill you with great confidence until you do it several times in one session.
