APR MS100187 DQ500 Transmission Catch Can and Breather System

The APR MS100187 DQ500 Transmission Catch Can and Breather System is engineered to address the limitations of the factory plastic breather system found in various Audi models. This factory setup is prone to failure under high-performance conditions, often resulting in transmission fluid leaks that can create a messy engine bay. The APR solution provides a robust, compact catch can that effectively manages fluid expansion and gas release.

Design and Functionality

The catch can is constructed from large CNC-machined billet aluminum, ensuring durability and a precise fit. Its black anodized finish not only enhances aesthetics but also provides additional resistance to corrosion. The system features a cotton gauze breather filter, also branded with the APR logo, which allows for optimal gas venting while preventing fluid from escaping into the engine compartment.
