Really love your videos, so informative! Just a quick question regarding my mk 7.5 R. At start-up (regardless of whether it is a cold start or it has been driven), there is a puff of white smoke that comes out of exhaust. Smokes for around 30 seconds and then nothing. Car drives totally normal, no smoke during normal driving or idle, oil levels totally normal and no leaking. Is this a common symptom of a faulty PCV valve?
Great video. Just a quick question… every now and then when I’m driving I can smell a bit of a petrol smell. Researching on forums people have stated that it’s the PCV… what would you say? Cheers
I notice Hengst were the manufacturer of the previous pcv valve you removed. The new one you installed is slightly different, is it a different manufacturer that VW use for the new pcv valves?
Hopefully i can get a answer here so shooting in the dark , i see someone did ask but did it consume oil , so every odd 1000 km's i need to top up a bit les than a point of oil , i have no leaks , when i try to pull the oil fill plug there is suction/vacuum in the engine so I'm suspecting my pcv is also done , but was wondering if it could be the cause of my oil consumption all be it not alot of consumption
hi if the oil separator is broken does it consume a lot of oil?because my vw golf after i change the engine oil after 6days its totally empty any idea? its no oil leaking it has no white or blue smoke oil filter is not leaking an oil..im always putting it 3liters for 6days
Hi Alex, it shouldn't make it consume excess amounts like that! that's a massive amount in 6 days! very odd if its not smoking at all and you can't see any leaks, if it was consuming that amount it should smoke a fair bit , Id have a really good scan round for a leak first and if its definelty not leaking you'll need to do some more involved checks to see if it is consuming it
@@diydaly the history is like this.. it has misfire number2 they scan the car the result is they change the spark plug then it was ok.then i went to change the engine oil air cleaner oil filter..after 6days the ligth indicator pop up so i check the oil its totally empty
I assume al new gaskets are already fitted on the replacement PCV? I want to do this as well, but I was unsure about the gaskets since the manual stated: “replace gasket after removing”. So I want to be sure I don’t have to get gaskets as well.
@@diydaly Had a golf GTI MK6 that had always used oil from new. I complained about it to VW dealer and went through an oil consumption test during the warranty period, not the only problem either. It had many other common problems as well. They passed it and stated it was normal oil consumption for a GTI.....BS!!! Fast forward 3.5 years and out of warranty at 70,000Kms oil consumption has slowly increased. I go through another oil consumption test and it failed. The VW dealer said it needs new pistons, piston rings and conrods. How unusual.... the warranty runs out and my engine needs an expensive rebuild (dishonesty as usual by VW/VW dealers). I complained and stated that this a common issue with these engines and I should not have to pay anything. VW agreed to part pay and charge me $3K to make up the difference. Get real VW!!! Anyway, I got rid of it and bought an I30N. Will never buy a VAG product ever again. VAG products are ticking time bombs!
Wow that’s pretty shocking isn’t it! Got to say I’ve not had any with as serious an issue as that but have dealt with a lot issues like the water pump / pump housings , manifolds and other issues at less than 40,000 miles!

Thanks 👍 hmm wouldn’t like to say for sure but I don’t think that will be causing the issue

I’m not too sure tbh mate , I’ve personnelly never experienced that 🤔
is the pcv still working?
Yeah 👍
I notice Hengst were the manufacturer of the previous pcv valve you removed. The new one you installed is slightly different, is it a different manufacturer that VW use for the new pcv valves?
im not too sure tbh mate
I have just purchased one from VW and the new one is branded Hengst too.
Great, helpful video. Where did you source the genuine VAG PCV from? I can not find one anywhere only aftermarket parts. Thanks
Hi thanks for the comment 👍 I had to order an OE one from TPS , they are our local supplier for OE VAG group parts 👌

no it wasn't really consuming excess oil tbf mate, the valve was just really noisy on this one

@@superkari28 hmm that's very odd, ima bit stuck on what to advise tbh, very hard to say without seeing the vehicle

Yeah the main gasket comes with it mate
@@diydaly Thats good to hear!
@@LoadmasterNLD 👍
@@diydaly One last question, what mm hose clamp is used?
@@LoadmasterNLD hmm I really wouldn't like to guess tbh! it was a while ago I did this one ha
Have a new pcv valve but did nt come with bolts. Can I reuse bolts
Yeah that’ll be fine mate
What was the issue for you to replace this?
the valve was really noisy on this one mate
Excellent vid, thanks👍
Thanks for the comment , much appreciated 👌👍
replacing mine at 140,000 miles stopped my valve cover leak.
👍
Did you have oil in your spark plugs prior to fitting a new pcv? If so has it rectified the issue?
I have torx 30 on my 2.0, 2015 Rline
thanks for the comment , ive not come across that before! 👍
@@diydaly R could be different on purpose.
Quick get rid of it! The PCV will be the least of your problems.
They do seem to have a few expensive issues 😬

@@diydaly Yeah it's quite horrific. I'm not the only one that has a horror story to tell about owning a VW product. I hear them on a regular basis.
I have a few friends owning vag vehicles , so will pass the info on 👍
