Jeep Renegade Oil Catch Cans

Crankcase blow-by on the Renegade's turbocharged EcoBoost and MultiAir engines routes oil vapors back into the intake manifold, where they coat the intake valves with a carbon deposit buildup that reduces airflow and hurts throttle response over time. Jeep Renegade Oil Catch Cans intercept those vapors before they reach the intake and collect the oil content in a reservoir that gets drained at service intervals instead of layering onto the valves.

 

An oil catch can on the Renegade is most impactful on a direct-injection engine, since port injection naturally washes carbon deposits off the valve face with each fuel pulse and direct injection doesn't — a DI Renegade builds deposits on the intake valve back faster than a port-injected engine of the same displacement. Most catch can kits in this section mount to the factory vacuum fittings in the PCV circuit and include the hoses needed to complete the installation without any permanent modification to the intake plumbing.
