    Testing for a ruptured PCV valve is simple! If you feel vacuum coming out of the top vent hole on the PCV valve cap your PCV valve has an issue. This vent hole is simply a breather to let the PCV valve move up and down freely. You will never feel / hear vacuum from it when it is working properly.

    This video needs an ASMR tag. I feel like I'm hearing the rubber gloves, the clicks, and everything way more than any other car vid. Must have a solid mic setup!

    Cap is a pain to pry off just break the tab holes with a pick and pry off with screwdriver mine actually split in 2 pieces. When popping on the new cap a glove over the cap tapped by a hammer helps seat the tabs correctly . Great video saved me a headache at the mechanic.

    Hi there! I have the same air leak but i’ve made the glove test through the oil filler cap and it gets vacuum not blow. So my question is that little leak means bad pcv 100%?

    How much vacuum is normally present in the crankcase at idle in these turbo engines? Is it enough to cause the engine to misfire and nearly quit when the oil cap is removed? When the diaphragm tears, does the vacuum pump normally apply full vacuum to the crankcase, unregulated by the PCV diaphragm?

    • @RKXTECHcom
      @RKXTECHcom  Год назад +6

      There is a good amount of vacuum inside the crankcase when this is working normally. These engines are sealed tight so removing your oil cap with the engine on will cause a missive vacuum leak essentially. When the PCV valve ruptures even more vacuum is applied to the crankcase and its typically really really difficult to remove the oil cap with the engine running because there is so much vacuum.

    Will a PCV diaphragm from a MKVI GTI work? They look the same. I ask because I have a spare laying around from when I used to own a GTI

    I have an Audi 2.0 T when I put my finger on that hole I do hear a vacuum and the car sounds like it’s going to die. Does that mean my PCV valve is faulty I’m getting misfire codes as well.

    Hi, if I have 86mbar in the system with a new PCV valve can I replace the spring with more tension to achieve at least around 100mbar? I know one service which calibrates these springs.

      Well, you can look at it this way; if you have the RKX kit as shown, you’d have a new replacement cap, so you don’t really care about the old cap so just mangle the 6 tabs or do whatever you can to pry it off.
