Enhanced V472 PCV Valve by Standard Motor Products - Optimize Your Search Review

Correct replacement part for 2007 RAV4 PVC valve. It was easy to install, just remove the plastic cover over the valve cover, use needle nose pliers to remove the clamp, unscrew the old valve and replace with a new one, replace the hose and plastic cover. Did.

I had to replace this valve while putting in a new valve cover gasket. Do yourself a favor and buy a new PCV hose as old ones tear easily. This part works great and even has the correct sealant on the threads. Good price and great fit.

The first valve I ordered didn't work. The check valve didn't work in either direction. When blown through the outlet end of the valve, the air flowed freely and did not stop. I ordered a replacement and it had the same problem. I know the correct operation because I checked the 15 year old valve that came OE on my Toyota and it REALLY blocked flow from the exhaust side.

The purchased PCV valve is a device that relieves the pressure in the engine of your car. This is supposed to be a one way valve, unfortunately the one I bought vented pressure at both ends. After installing the valve, the car had uneven idling and a strong smell of gasoline. This was apparently due to poor quality control, which luckily was corrected with the new device before it resulted in catastrophic engine failure.
