Description
The Mishimoto BMW N54 Baffled Oil Catch Can (MPN MMBCC-N54-06CBE2) is the CCV-side unit engineered specifically for BMW’s direct-injection N54 engine, where oil blow-by and carbon buildup are a well-known headache. Built on Mishimoto’s proven 2-Port Compact Baffled Oil Catch Can platform, this application-specific kit pairs a 50 micron bronze filter with internal baffling to pull oil out of crankcase vapors before they can reach sensitive engine components.
As a purpose-built engine component for N54-powered BMWs, this catch can helps protect the intercooler, intake system, and VANOS system from oil blow-by while helping maintain proper octane levels to reduce potential detonation. A CNC-machined lid features large inlets and outlets sized to match the CCV hose, and two CNC-machined aluminum inlet/outlet fittings connect directly to the included hoses. An internal air diverter turbulates crankcase vapor longer for improved oil separation, and because the can isn’t heated, blow-by (including low-octane oil vapors and contaminated fuel vapors) condenses and stays trapped in the can rather than draining back into the oil pan like many air-oil-separator setups.
Vehicle Applications
This CCV-side Mishimoto baffled oil catch can is built to fit the BMW N54 platform across several chassis: the 2007-2010 BMW 335i, the 2007-2008 BMW 335xi, the 2008-2010 BMW 135i, the 2009-2010 BMW 335i xDrive, and the 2011 BMW 1 Series M. The direct-fit hoses and application-specific mounting bracket are matched to these vehicles, so installation requires no modification to the engine cover.

Frequently Asked Questions
What vehicles does the Mishimoto MMBCC-N54-06CBE2 catch can fit?
This CCV-side Mishimoto baffled oil catch can fits the 2007-2010 BMW 335i, 2007-2008 BMW 335xi, 2008-2010 BMW 135i, 2009-2010 BMW 335i xDrive, and 2011 BMW 1 Series M.
What does this catch can protect against?
It is designed to reduce carbon buildup and defend the intercooler, intake system, and VANOS system from oil blow-by, while helping maintain proper octane levels to reduce potential detonation.
What is the catch can made of?
The can is a billet 6061-T6 aluminum, twist-off design finished in black anodized with an outside diameter of 2.5 inches.
Does the kit include mounting hardware and hoses?
Yes, the kit includes a direct-fit mounting bracket and two direct-fit hoses that require no modification to the engine cover, along with a drain plug.
How does this catch can differ from a heated AOS system?
The Mishimoto catch can is not heated, so all blow-by, including low-octane oil vapors and contaminated fuel vapors, condenses and is trapped in the can rather than draining back into the oil pan as with many AOS systems.
Is this catch can serviceable?
Yes, the filter and can are fully serviceable, and the can uses a twist-off design with a 50 micron bronze filter and internal baffle.
