Why do you think so?

No noise, no play, nothing! But once I took the tension of the bolt, the part just fell off lol

I'm pretty sure that this happened when someone torqued the bolt down to oblivion. The bolt was stripped as well, that's why I am thinking this is what happened

Agreed 100%

It’s the same in the US haha

Once I released the tension from the bolt the cracked peace just fell off. The bolt was the only thing that was holding it

@TheGiantMechanic wow

@CRAPO2011 I hope he bought that ticket haha

@TheGiantMechanic definitely, I hope he thanked you for seeing that

I’m buying 3 lottery tickets right now just from watching that! Welcome back, keep rocking! 👍😀

It's very easy! I believe it is like 4-5 bolts. Don’t forget to clean all surfaces from oil and gunk before you install the new pcv valve and you are good to go!

I do not know. Im pretty sure it was a wrap, but it has been so long, I do not remember

I keep telling people that maintenance is key for these cars, but they just laugh at me. I laugh when it comes back on a tow truck haha

I disagree. Any Land Rover/Jaguar product is unreliable lol

And people still buy them

​@@TheGiantMechanicthey want to feel special

@@JustRollin There definitely is a "attitude" of when people own a Land Rover/Jaguar product

Land rovers are junk to begin with

That is exactly what I did pretty much! And the updates are cheaper that way! I am very happy with the product. I use it every day and only had a couple of times where I needed a more powerful scan tool for programming

@TheGiantMechanic ya my plan is to buy this tool, then buy a tpms tool and J box to use with a laptop separately

@@RyldUp-uo3pc Smart!

This one at least reached 140k miles 🤷‍♂️. Usually they go bad faster lol

Correct. In this case, it is not part of the valve cover, and you can buy just the pcv assembly

If I remember correctly, that is where the coolant was leaking on this radiator as well. Labor will really depend on the shop you bring it to and where you are from, so it is hard to say. I don't recall what book time was, and if I had to discharge the AC system, if I remember correctly, I did not discharge the system

O ok thanx... I had it since it's brand new and while it was still under warranty I had the water pump done the AC compressor coolant reservoir and a couple other things as of today it only has 50,000 miles.. crazy

@gagrg76 Yeah I am sorry that things keep breaking on you. Hopefully this is the last repair for a while!

Makes sense to me 😂

This isn't even stupid. It's just a total lack of effort

@TheGiantMechanic you're right, better way to put it

Wise words

Won't disagree

Why?

@@KangoV Why is it junk?

@@TheGiantMechanic yes,why?

Many issues with the cooling system, oil consumption, electric problems, the mild hybrid battery having issues at low mileage, and so on. Even simple things like not choosing the right material for the coolant pipe oring that goes into the turbo that will cause a coolant leak at 30k miles on a brand new car. Everyone hoped that once the contract with Ford was over, the new in house built Inginium engines would be awesome! So far, they are nothing but problems even at low mileage.

I wouldn't personally. The super small oil passages might be clogged and will eventually cause the engine to seize. I would not risk it. But I have seen people do it and not blow up their engines thousands of miles later. Is kind of a 50/50. If it was my car I wouldn't

Trust me, it's for money, haha. You can check the oil level theoretically on the instrument cluster, but I don't trust it. Or you can buy a dipstick for like 20$

Works every time haha

Do you trust the oil level sensor 100%?

i bet you own a bluetooth air compressor don’t you

@TurdKutter Is this a question for me? Also, I never heard Bluetooth air compressor, that is hilarious 😂

I think the point is why can't Audi afford to put a dipstick in the hole made for it?

They used to put dipsticks in their older models, and then, for some reason (money 🤫), they stopped. Even if it did have a dipstick from the factory, 90% of the owners don't check their oil

@@TheGiantMechanic Yup. It's all about the money.... If people can't check the oil they'll burn up motors which will make money.... Built in obbsolences.

@v2vortex Sad, but true. To be fair, you can check the oil through the instrument cluster, but it is so inaccurate. I would check it through the cluster, and it would say the oil level is at max and then drain the oil and find 1.5qt of oil low

@@TheGiantMechanicthat’s because the system can only measure up to 1.5 low. same way most dip sticks can only read ab 1.5qt maybe 2 on some. either way if you see no oil on the stick, or the message says 1.5, it’s a bad sign

Works every time 😁

You are correct about everything except why it fails. Although you are right that late oil changes will cause this issue faster, oil changes on time won't prevent the pcv valve not failing

Yes, it did! Whenever a pcv is bad, it will cause a code, but you have to be careful and make sure that it is actually the pcv that is causing the lean condition. Very rare will it not cause the check engine light to turn

I do not recall, but I think it was around that price. I don't remember how much the differential itself was, but labor was around 1300 from what I remember

No, you just drain the old fluid and put the new fluid in. The fluid was bought from the dealer, I don't remember what exact fluid it is, but it is not just pure simple gear oil

You can't because you are testing the front struts by doing that, not the engine mounts. To check your engine mounts, do something called power braking. Putting the car is drive, and while holding the brake pedal, start accelerating every 3 seconds to see if the engine is jumping up, which would indicate the mount being bad. Do the same thing, just not in drive, but reverse to check the other mount. Hope this helps

@@TheGiantMechanic Thanks, I will do that!

@@Armanos99 No problem!

It's the effort that counts, right? 😂

This is a customers car, and he definitely found out it wasn't the belt when he started the car 😁

You don't even need it for this particular case

I doubt that the lesson was learned, but who knows, maybe! At least he won't need to worry about the belt and tensioner for a while lol

You are correct about almost everything. But this is a Volvo in house made engine. Similar problems

Ripped diaphragm

It does sound like a whistle

Good guess! But in this case it was the pcv valve

Of course, this is just a joke. If it can be turned on, it can be stolen
