Fitted them both after lunch, nice and easy to change. Car is now unhappy to idle with the dipstick quickly pulled out while running, indicating new PCV valve is working. Leaks cleaned up and I'll monitor them over the rest of the week and weekend.


Im actually more concerned now about mine with the new one fitted as it seems to make little to no difference removing the dipstick.
:(

Hmm, mine was noticeably worse running with the dipstick pulled out... :S

With the old one pulling the dipstick it just about stalled the engine then it came back to life.

With the new one, removing the dipstick it has a very very slight miss and very slight engine rock but tickover doesnt seem to change or maybe does for a fraction of a second.  Its hard to tell due to the other sounds.

Thanks for this, very much appreciated.

I will compare mine to yours again tomorrow.

Yours does seem much more noticeable.
