Thank you Merc63 for posting this up!

Just to clarify a couple things...

Don't mistake this for a catch can. A catch can is vented into atmosphere, and with this you will see and smell oil vapors.

An oil separator does not vent to atmosphere. It simply separates the oil and condensation from the air being passed through and doesn't allow any of that oil or condensation to go back into the intake route.

In terms of mounting brackets, we have different brackets for every chassis. We have spent a lot of time refining the bracket design to make it fit as perfect as possible. Thank you guys for posting pictures of your setups. The C class fits right behind the right side head light with simple slide on brackets.

Thank you all and please email or PM us if you have any questions.

My 08 C63 is definitely out of warranty.. anyhows, have been eyeing on this part for a while now so it seems that I'll have to get one very soon as I too am looking to keep her for a long long time! Heck, her financing has already been paid off! Alysha is all mine

Quote: Anyone in Australia (preferably Melbourne) got one of these fitted?
I'm quite keen on getting one but would be curious what the dealers over here are like with warranty, etc. with it installed.
I had one of the first in Australia back in 2011 and never had any issues with the dealer. Installed it myself too.

They really do work well and are incredibly made.

Too small

Its good for the Mrs though, she used to drive the ML63 in traffic all day and it was no good for it. Evoque better suited. Uses half the fuel too.

Miss the ML though!
