Si-135, if you don't see any oil in your can,
1. you might still wanna take it out and drain it, coz the "plastic tube window thing" is sitting quite high up and you might already have 0.5" of oil in the can
2 .you might also want to check for leaks where the hose is connected to the engine (under the cover).

I don't know how hard you drive your car, but unless you shift below 4krpm, you'll get some oil in your blow by gas. I'm pretty sure it's not the car is not having any oil in blow by gas, but it is the RR catch can isn't doing sh*t. It works for me for the first few months, I've to empty it pretty much every month, and find quite a bit of oil in there. Then the leaking starts coz of the o-rings fail and dramatic size reduction on the connectors.

I'll get another catch can, most likely the BSH can, but I'll do it when I've saved enough for a new FMIC.
