Steering wheel noise...only from the upper part of the column shaft ? Next noise I found now: my steering produces a kind of noise (a growling sound if I steer very fast left/right/left or a little bit more when I go to the left end). Any way to lubricate something in the upper part of the...

@XLT16: I understand now the difference ! 2nd question was: what about the "clean side" ? Some of the catch cans has another part for the clean side...how do this works ?

But, @peterk9, when it prevents that oil comes from crankcase to the intake, it`s the same principle than the catch cans work with...so I don`t "need" a catch can !?

In fact, this crankcase vent oil separator works in the same direction/matter as the catch can to reduce the amount of oil that goes directly to the intake, but the oil goes here (PCV) directly back to the crankcase !??? Is this a kind of a problem solution from Ford ?

Anyone who tried the Hankook Dynapro`s ? I have, and I think they are very fine / noise is about 71 dB...but some problems under whet conditions.

@ExPlat, thanks ! But the air takes the same way from crankcase to the intake ? Only difference is that it doesn`t catch the oil but send it back to the crankcase ?

Can anyone explain me what`s the function of this "crankshaft vent oil separator" ?

And this: my Ford has a crankshaft vent oil separator / found it at Fordparts.com 6A785...and the rep. manual (and my car) shows this: Is this part serviceable ? Is this a kind of an oil catch can ???
