To de can or not

So there has been a lot of discussion on weather or not a catch can will void your factory warranty. I noticed a sound I had not heard in the past. a ticking coming from the driver side closer to the fire wall and a hissing from the top or front of motor. So should I remove the can and go back to factory setup before going in for service? I don`t want to give them anything to blame the problem on or void my warranty because of the CC.

Is the Warranty still in effect on your car. You didn't list what year your Camaro is . Personally I wouldn't worry about the catch can being on .

I would remove it before taking it in for service if you are still under warranty.

I've had my catch can on for roughly a month and so far no issues to date.

I would remove it if I were you. That peace at mind is worth more than the time it takes to remove it and reinstall it upon return from servicing.
