Where is the pcv?
Seriously....PICS bros...
I have looked through 3 service tech manuals that I just bought, searched on the internet under the LNF engine, searched on this forum.....and I am not sure anyone actually knows where it is...
I cant find a HOW to on this anywhere...
In what I have found out it apparently is - pressed in - on the valve cover near the turbo.
However, I read someone stating that to replace the PCV you need to remove the intake manifold on the other side?? WTF?
Confused...
Who presses a PCV into a hard to get to area? I guess the same people who put the fuel filter into the fuel tank...

The PCV valve is pressed into the intake manifold, to change it requires that you remove the intake manifold. Once the manifold is off the end the valve can be tapped out with a ratchet extension or a piece of wood dowel.
There are also 2 PCV lines, one form the air intake near the MAF sensor that goes to the valve cover. And the other goes from the valve cover to the turbo.
When installing Powell's PCV upgrade the fitting that connects the turbo line to the valve cover has to be removed, it is pressed into the valve cover.

Thanks, but I wish I could see some pics of this ...
I saw a diagram but hard to see how it fits into the mani....
F it, I am just going to pull my intake manifold and valve cover so I can see this POS...lol
I will take pics and change it out so that everyone can see it ...

yes wait for the instructions. the line valve cover comes out easy or it did for me anyway. just grabbed it with vice grip and tapped the vice grip with hammer and it popped out

I am trying to find it for my own personal knowledge...I just bought the car and every time I get a used car I change out every possible thing, oil, trans fluid, diff, fuel filter, incabin, splugs, brake fluid...etc etc. including PCV....never had a hidden PCV before...
