Don’t make fun of his English. This man is saving people money putting videos like these up. Thank You sir. I am a woman and I was able to fix my car myself.
Understood him perfectly, explained it really well. Guys like this are helping people do their own repairs or improve their knowledge of how engine's operate
Thanks for the info, the dealership was going to charge me $700 for a compression test and with your video I spent $17 for a PCV valve , solved the problem
gf’s crv with 201,000 miles was running perfectly but suddenly we had to add a quart of oil per week, with no visible leaks and no smoke at all. i changed pcv valve for $10 & 10 minutes & it fixed everything! unbelievable
I just want to say thank you so much for your videos. I was able to replace my injectors and pcv valve on my 09 CX-7 turbo. You guys are very thorough and clear in explaining. I especially liked this video because I never totally understood the symptoms of a bad pcv valve. Keep it up, you're awesome 👍😎
I still don't understand the symptoms. This guys annoying voice and english didn't make it easy. Can you please explain? I've read and seen videos of this valve going bad or the hoose connected to it with cracks developing vacuum leaks. My car is sometimes hard to start, sometimes it starts and dies so I need to restart and sometimes it barely starts with like 650-700rpm idle and the car shakes and it feels like its running on 2 or 3 cylinders. So i need to press on throttle to make the engine go back to it's normal state at idle 900-950 rpm and not that shaking :) Car is twitching when driving, mostly on lower city driving speeds or when engine braking.. coming to a stop. Also idle fluctuating when braking to a stop. Compensating up and down.. really annoying.. until it smooths out. Not all the time..
Played this at 1.5x speed, so in ~3mins, you helped me figure out the source of multiple issues that I'd been dealing with with my car (that I'd been taking to dealerships since I bought it.) Thanks for this info!
Thanks man my Lexus LS430 cranked up with white smoke all the time even on hard acceleration it would leave a cloud of smoke when I pulled the PCV valve it was all gunked with deposit. After swapping out the PCV valve my car stop smoking and even on hard acceleration no more clouded smoke. Thanks for the videos man I took it to the mechanic and he thinks that DIY videos are foolish. he said it was the seal guides from the valve stems and a $3,500 fix when it was really a $5 fix. Thanks to people like you I can save money and be happy appreciate you definitely subscribing!!
Great video mate had an issue with my car, rough idle white smoke that smelt burnt every now and then and misfires trying to find every solution and saw your video now it’s sorted 👌🏻
I have same issue on turbo diesel car , white smoke on idle and take off but no white smoke after 2 mins of driving unless it’s idling. Does that sound about the same , unburnt fuel smell as well
Good video.I have all the sypthoms on my audi 2.0 engine that pcv valve is open.Step by step discovered that spark plugs look terible,there is oil in intake manifold,engine is ideling badly and check engine light is on.Ordered parts today and then found your video.And you named all the sympthoms my car have.
I was going to make a wise crack and say improve on his voice but I went with the mature option and watched the video and learned a lot! Thanks for this knowledge. Also I apologize 😅.
Replace key parts of your vehicle based on the manufacturers suggested interval...even if it doesn’t fail. “Penny wise, pound foolish”. At 117,000 miles, while replacing my water pump and drive belt, I requested that the PCV valve be replaced. It was overdue for replacement but did not fail.
Thank you! I almost don't need further diagnosis, you nicely covered symptoms of both cases. Others only show simple test or replace, leaving questions. I've gone through everything else and thought of this, but slow start, and other issues highlights this. I also didn't know this " supposed to be replaced between 30,000 and 60,000 miles" which implies preventative maintenance anyway.
Since i have been watching yours and others. I decided to change mine. I have a 05 4runner sr5. When i changed it. My engine has a little over 190 on it.I am the second owner. As far as i know it was the first time it has been changed. One thing it said to look for a valve cover leak. Sure enough. The lefted side in the back is starting to leak. Not real bad. Thank God. Check ever bolt and they were tight. The back bolt was a little lose. Not much. But a little. Time will tell if changing the pcv and tighting that one bolt. Will work.
Mine was sticking open. I started noticing a harder start on cold start. Also noticed a very slight misfire at idle while warming up. Not enough to cause a CEL or anything. I could tell something just wasnt quite right, my oil was getting extremely black after only 300-500 miles as well. Replaced my pcv valve and all of that has stopped. Engine starts perfectly now in the morning with no hesitation. Idle is perfect, did an oil change and its no longer getting jet black at only 400 miles. 58,000 miles on my 2019 civic coupe turbo. Now im on a crusade to get people to replace their pcv valves. Another thing is modern pcv valves dont necessarily rattle when new like the old days. Also dont try cleaning them, just replace it. Theyre cheap on most cars, and easy to do. If youve never replaced it, or have no record of it being done, just do it.
@AngloSaxon you can ask dealership parts, they can search it up for you. i just bought the oem and tighten it, but not too tight. I noticed quite a bit of fuel improvement, we also had been using green fuel tab and this should help to keep the pcv valve clean. i also notice that when i turn AC on, it didn’t drop in power as it was before, huge different as well as braking when AC is on.
...yea It was a 30 second video but all the detailed info is what you need to understand why the problem is occurring that's why I watching the full video is necessary
Had to quit listening, can't understand. PCV = positive crankcase ventilation. It releases pressure that is built up by the piston on the down stroke. If plugged gaskets will leak on valve covers, oil pans, etc. It was introduced in 68 or 69 as the first attempt at smog reduction. Before the pcv valve the engines had a breather tube usually in the rear that vented the vapors into the air. The pcv sucks the vapors back into the intake for another cycle. Race engines does not use them, they need clean air with no oil vapors. I don't know if he covered any of this info but I just felt like adding my 2 cents in case it might help someone. By the way if it rattles its good.
@Jay Dee While you have the hood up why not do both? A new pcv valve shouldn't plug up very fast unless the piston rings are worn and letting some compression by and into the crankcase.
Man its so difficult to understand what you are saying.. I'm tired of trying to understand what's going on But anyways.. Thanks for your time and explanation
ayye man props for you helping us out but u sound like stitch from lilo and stitch, but idk thought it was funny cool, butt keep it up man this helped me out a lot and hopefully it is what im missing
@@PJMontoya I'm always up to date on may trucks maintenance. I have 160k on a 2010 tacoma and just noticed that I am beginning to burn oil. I hope the piston rings are still good. Any input, is appreciated bro! I'm going to try this out tomorrow!
@@cruzr9547 If you see blue smoke on start up only it could be valve seals. If you see it when it’s running it could be rings. But I’d start with replacing the PCV valve. On my car it was a pain to do but for most it’s super easy and cheap
Thank you buddy I will change mine tomorrow. I have rough idle and I also can’t pass emission. I have p0011 code I will change vvt and cam shaft sensor
You didn’t mention oil pressure. If it was stuck close would it increase pressure? Also, would most modern cars have a crankcase sensor? Good video! Thumbs up 👍 and new subscriber
Yes it will increase pressure if stuck closed. Seeing as how it's function is to relieve pressure. With the increased pressure it will push oil through the valve seals and cover.
First time I changed the oil on my current vehicle the pcv grommet was holding on to the valve. Practically took a 2 ton press to pull it out. Exaggeration. I was careful because used to the only place you could get those grommets was the dealer. Might be aftermarket by now. They say throw it away and put in another Mopar valve. I just sprayed brake cleaner through it, fried it, and put it back in. But the biggest thing about positive crankcase ventilation is how they'll sludge an engine and ruin internal seals. There used to be a better way of ventilation but I can't tell you about it. Short trips will also sludge an engine. People usually blame the oil but it's rarely the source of sludge. PCV is just a check ball in a passage that works like a diode. Keeps it going one direction. So I just thought about it in my head and figured out there's probably a spring before the check valve. That's probably what wears out on the PCV valve. I should probably order one.
Before i junk the car i have 2009 mazda cx7 and im getting alot of smoke coming from the exhaust and the smell of burning oil do you think replacing the pcv valve would help?
Hi Guys Thank you for your efforts Toyota Corolla 2016 With the code P219A P219c What is that What can i do How to diagnose the cause How to check & repair Please let me know reply Thank you again
I have a Kia forte GT 2021 and when I let go the gas!!! It reaches to speed of 3mph and my engine shakes. I changed all motor mounts, air filter and all spark plugs and still doing it. I need help figuring it out. Thank for help if you replied back. TY.
At this point my car needs to be replaced with a lot😭 she’s a 1997 Saturn sc2 but at the end of the day I want the car to have as new parts as possible so maybe changing everything before it fucks up wont hurt

Totally having cloud of smoke issue on hard acceleration, and smelling the smoke inside the cabin. Hopefully this will work 🙏
just like the serpentine belt, I just replace this every 60k miles. it is cheap and easy to replace no need to wait for a headache.
Thank you for posting, the valves get forgotten because now-a-days they are buried, out of sight, out of mind....
Thanks guys!! I was able to replace this today in just a few minutes!!
