Everyone addresses the intake manifold oil leak issue by replacing the seals/swirl flaps etc. Doesn't this just leave more oil in the manifold to be drawn into the engine? Won't this cause the DPF to become restricted earlier? Is there a solution to eliminating/reducing the oil that gets into the intake manifold?

Still looking for some of you more experienced guys to chime in. I'm in the process of washing my DPF Filter. I've had it soaking for days and pressure washing between and the solution is still coming out very dirty. I'm looking at installing an Oil catch can to minimize the oil in the intake but I am unable to find anyone thus far that had done it on an E60 530d. Is there such a product for the Diesel models?
