Signs your PCV Valve Needs Service

So, as we said, the PCV Valve is what transfers gas from inside the crankcase and gets it to the intake manifold so they can burn normally without releasing excess gas into the atmosphere. Like nearly every part on your car, this one will need to be replaced eventually. Sometimes causes are due to engine problems, other times it’s just from use and age.

  • Car is running poorly without any visible reason why
  • Leaks underneath the car near engine
  • Engine starts to making hissing noises
Because of the important role this plays, it’s always best to have it checked out during every major tune-up you have. Like during your 30k, 60k, etc routine maintenance checks. Having the service will not only help your car to run smoothly and keep up great gas mileage, but it will also help to keep the area around the engine clean and prevent any buildup from forming.
