Has anyone installed a catch can on the Durango 5.7L hemi?

I put on a Moroso catch can. I like it because it has a drain line. It is very easy to install, but it won't fit to the mounting bolt the Charger uses. I mounted mine to the bracket that holds the fuse box. Fits there just fine. Make sure you run the hoses long enough to go under the engine cover. I cut mine border line too short, but I can still put the engine cover on. It is about a 10 minute install.

I can't really tell what causes it, my wife drives it mostly and almost always does exactly the same trips, and parks it on an incline in the driveway.
I could go to the dealer to complain, but it wouldn't do it when its there.
If we could figure out when this happens, and reproduce it, then we could get a fix.
Maybe Chrysler already knows about this.

Guys there is nothing to fix...the design of the HEMI from day 1 (now 7-8 years ago) was to vent the crankcase back into the intake. The oil vapor goes back into the manifold and when you shut down, the vapors combine and form liquid oil sitting in the intake. If you park on an incline, the liquid oil drips down and collects. When you fire up the engine, it gets sucked in and burned off which can lead to light smoke being seen when first restarted. It is not known or ever been proven to be detrimental, but some of the more OCD folks would rather capture it.
BT is the way to go, since as of this moment BT is manufacturing a Mopar Accessory approved catch can, Part #: P5156020 Which will be available direct from your dealers.

Call me part of the OCD crowd. Maybe i'll end up getting the catch can if its not too expensive (the problem doesn't seem that bad as it has only smoked 3 times in 5,000 miles)

But I will for sure be getting the BT catch can when it becomes available for helping keep some of that extra oil vapor out of the manifold.....plus it will look damn cool under the hood.
