Review on πŸ”§ Dorman 46034 PCV Hose Kit: The Ultimate Solution for Optimal Engine Performance by James Jenkins

Revainrating 4 out of 5

$25 part, 5 hour install in Ford Focus

It's a bit pricey for the amount of hose you get here, but the price pales in comparison to the amount of labor it takes to install it in a Ford Focus was required. You'll need to remove the intake manifold, which involves removing several front-end components, wiring and hoses, and you'll also need to lower and support the radiator as Ford engineers have poor access to tools. I daresay this would cost over $400 at retail prices. At the very least, Dorman saw fit to add an extra sleeve around the hose to solve the reliability problem. Here Ford got away with a PZEV warranty claim - random misfire DTCs popped up at 152,000 miles. Bullet dodged, Detroit/Hermosillo.
