so am i right in thinking that with the stage 1 fix it prevents any of the oil etc. ever touching the intake valves?
Yup, catch can or a vent to atmosphere setup.
thats the opposite to whats said on the other thread !!!!!!
Then why bother asking the question here and also starting a new thread if your so sure? I myself fitted my catch can as per the instructions on the BSH website but since changed after being advised by Phil @ BSH. Have you actually read through this thread? http://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=8243.30
