▶ Vehicle Fitments
The APR 17-20 Audi RS3 DQ500 Transmission Catch Can & Breather System is a high-performance upgrade designed for the DQ500 DSG and S Tronic transmissions. It addresses the factory plastic breather system, which allows for transmission fluid expansion and gas removal but can become overwhelmed, leading to fluid spillage in the engine bay. This system features an easy-to-install, compact catch can that is larger than the stock unit, effectively collecting expanded fluids and venting trapped gases through a breather filter. The can’s design, with fluids entering at an angle, helps prevent spray-through, ensuring cleaner operation and reducing mess. When necessary, the transmission fluid drains back into the transmission, maintaining proper fluid levels and performance.
Compatible with 2017-2020 Audi RS3 models equipped with the DQ500 transmission, this system is a direct upgrade that enhances reliability and reduces maintenance concerns related to fluid expansion. It is suitable for street and track use, providing a durable and efficient solution for high-performance driving conditions. The kit includes the larger catch can and breather filter, offering a straightforward installation that improves the overall health of the transmission system. Designed to prevent fluid spillage and gas buildup, this catch can system is an essential upgrade for enthusiasts seeking optimal transmission performance.
