Good quality and straight fit

Everything fits except the hose which requires some force is the one that connects to the valve cover. Once you start you have more room to attach the hose and also slide the silicone grommet towards the valve cover and you can flex the hose even more once you line it up with the CCV. Just use a long flat head that pushes in and then connect the pipe to the valve cover one last time, all my lean covers were fixed and the car's performance went up!

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • Some small things

Great product, size was an issue

Great product and really good insulation from the cold. The only thing is that these are not exact lengths and bends either. The fact is that the gaskets that connect them are not the size you need. You must inquire before purchasing. MOST IMPORTANTLY, make sure you have a dipstick seal as they are disposable o-rings. Also, I need to hook things up, but the way I had to bend the pipe that went to the top of the oil separator from the heat and cold would eventually break it. You can mix and…

Pros
  • Hands free operation
Cons
  • Having issues

Change those stupid o-rings and for any potential buyer

Everything came as described with all the hoses I needed. However, there is one major problem with this kit - the o-rings. The thick orange O-rings included in this kit make new hoses VERY difficult to snap on. I even had to replace a few because neither of them could hold up, which can be very frustrating when you're struggling with this for an hour. GooDeal note, replace those stupid o-rings and for any potential buyer make sure you have other o-rings or you will regret it.

Pros
  • Great for a small house
Cons
  • Doubtful

Great quality for the price

A few weeks ago the old CCV was replaced with this one and everything seems to be holding up pretty well. Good quality for the price. A word of caution: don't attach any hoses other than the twisted one until you've got the thing installed. I just started playing around with it to see how things would fit together before actually installing it, and those hoses are no joke once connected. I ended up having to order another set because I broke a couple of hoses trying to take them apart. While…

  • Weight

Need better o-rings for 5 stars and better flexibility.

Tight fit but worth the install. Initially I had a slightly choppy idle system when stopping and eventually after about a year the OBD system reported two vacuum leaks in the system. Did some research and found that one of the reasons could be a crack in the CCV system at a weak point. I also had a small oil leak from the car which is due to the power steering hoses which are common on E46s at this point in their lives. Upon further investigation under the hood I found a leak at the bottom of…

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • Vulgarity
