Review on Reliable Genuine Chrysler 4648973AD PCV Valve - Optimal Performance for Your Vehicle by Charles Adelaja

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Take my advice and save yourself

Minivan with 3.8L engine? JUST DON'T. Take my hard-earned advice: just go to the dealer. It's anything but simple and easy. To access the PCV valve, you must remove the wipers, motor, and wiper arms. If possible, you should probably remove the hood as well. The original is mounted in a plastic valve cover on the back of the engine. It is almost impossible to remove the original from the valve cover without damaging the plastic holder it is housed in. Seriously, it looks like it's welded to the valve cover. I know someone who pulled it out, but it took hours to gently pry the rubber seals out and probably left crumbs in the valve cover. Chemicals are no good because you don't want them in the valve cover either. This design is bad, the worst. There isn't enough pressure inside the valve cover to justify this ridiculous design. Also, there's no reason why it couldn't be installed on the front valve cover.

Pros
  • Automobile
Cons
  • Not as bold as other options
