I do recommend caution. I had a catch can on my 2016 and as temperatures dropped into the low teens the can was filling with water in one weeks time. The result was the crank case wasn’t venting properly and the oil reeked of fuel.

After I found the can this full in four day, I took if off and changed the oil. Because it was cold outside I had the garage door down and the garage smelt like gasoline. I won’t put a can on a car ever again.

I never realized this was a problem in cold climates but it makes sense. I'm re-thinking using the catch can I just bought. Just out of curiosity, what brand was yours?
