I have a saturn astra with the whistling coming from that area and p0171 error. no oil leak. I am hoping this will take car of the problem. i am a little more confident now it will.
Hi Jack, I see in internet that for Opel cars the error P0171 means "Fuel ratio too lean". I also found many youtube videos in which the problem is solved changing the "purge valve". You can easily check that valve by disconnecting it and plugging the hose that goes to the engine.... You can also easily test if the problem comes from the pcv disconneting (If in your car exists...) the hose that goes from the pcv to the intake collector and plugging it (letting the hose connected to the intake collector).
Guglielmo, thanks for the video snd a great presentation. I have an Opel Zafira 1.7cdti (2014). Does this PCV apply to my vehicle and would this need to be changed after 100k lms for example? Regular maintenance, or just wait for a code? Thanks again, Neil
Hello Neil, thank you for your appreciations. Every modern veicle has a PCV valve, the image shown in my video are related to a Zafira 1,6 CNG, but I don't know for shure if your car has the same valve cover. Anyway...... the PCV replacement isn't related to a specific mileage. The simptoms of a bad PCV valve are oil consuption and uneven idle rotation.
Hi Julius, the valve is not the same but I've found the right part for your car from a good supplier..... it.aliexpress.com/i/1005001493382046.html pls. check if the valve cover is exactly like your....
hi i need help so basically i had 2 major leaks one was the oil cooler and one was the cam seals i have done the cam seals i then did the oil cooler but its still leaking and it only comes out when you drive it it then goes on to the exhaust and burns
Hello Ahmad, if the oil flows on the external side of the engine you have another seal that leaks, nothing to do with the PCV valve and seals. You have to wash clean the engine, then watch carefully from where the oil spills....
Hello. I have a astra j 2.0 cdti 2011 and I have noticed there is a lot of oily soots in engine manifold when I changed the map sensor.. Also I noticed oil in air pipe where heat pipe comes from manifold (appeared to be open 24/7) which goes to air intake...any idea? Car not loosing any engine oil.. Thank you 👍
Hello Sam, if your oil consumption is not abnormal I think you must check the EGR valve.... The Egr could be responsible for the kind of problems you noticed. The Egr circuit can be seen in the following link : dieselnet.com/tech/images/engine/egr/sys/ld_egr.png
@@guglielmoorsini8553 egr is blanked and remaped also dpf filter been removed.. I think it could be the positive crank case ventilation (pcv) also known as Air breather, I think.. I will locate them and change them if possible but there is not much information in Internet about it and can't find the parts also..
Hello EB20, if your car isn't turbo you can disconnect the pipe and plug it (cork or plastic) and also try to plug the valve cover exit with a plug made with tissue but not too much compressed...... after one week try to see if the oil consumption gets back to normal.....
Hello, thanks for your appreciations. The new PCV valve assembly comes with new gaskets and membrane. If you need only the membrane you can search in internet for the PN 5607159, but the gaskets aren't sold separately from the PCV assembly. Regards Guglielmo
@@guglielmoorsini8553 thanks a lot for the info. So where can we find the gaskets as I am experiencing this problem. Obviously the mushroom valve in the intake manifold is gone (main problem).
@@alinpopa2708 Hello Alin, thanks for your appreciations ! Answering your question I tell you to try to find a auto parts dealer that has available the part "Vaico V40 2020"
Einfacher wäre es den kompletten Deckel zu tauschen , hab für meinen neuen 40 Euro bezahlt . Runter bauen musst den sowieso , dann kannst den gleich neu geben , zumal da die Dichtung auch gewechselt werden muss und die dabei ist beim neuen
Great video brilliant explanation I m having same issues thanks for sharing 🎉

Can i ask u questoon my opel corsa c 1.4i has high oil consumption is it cause of this valve it might draining more oil then usual

I have this car do i need to change whole rocker cover or jaut the part
Hello, just the part it's ok...
First step find the part, then workout the rocker cover carefully....

Thank you for this video, It was very helpful ! I was wondering if you could give me the reference for the gaskets and the membrane.

Answering your question I tell you to try to find a auto parts dealer that has available the part "Vaico V40 2020"
@@guglielmoorsini8553 Thanks for the answer. Is Vaico v40-2020 ok for the 1.4 turbo engine (A14NET)?
Unfortunately some covers are sealed undernith and there's no acces to the breather.
In my case its the A12XER of an opel corsa d (2013).
Is this the case for the z16xer? I changed a few days ago and didn't see anything like this.
How can I get new membrane please?
Many online spart part supplier are selling membranes. PN depends on make, model and building year, so it must be searched idividually....
Regards
Sorry were to buy?
Hello Jose, the best you can do is search with Goggle "VAICO V40", then chose a shop close to you or at least one that ships in your country. Regards
