Hi everyone,
Please consider subscribing if you like this type of content and thank you for the support!
In this episode, I tackle the challenging job of changing the PCV system. I do this without removing the inlet manifold to save time and effort. The PCV system is made of plastic and rubber and holds an air vacuum to create better efficiency with your engine. Over time these parts become brittle and fragile and are prone to cracking. If this happens you will have rough idle issues with your car and an unbalanced fuel mix which can result in high emissions and black smoke from your exhaust.
As always thanks for watching and for the support.

@matthiasoberlin 5 месяцев назад

@@Witty924 Almost got it. It is a pain to do with the engine code AJQ, since they got a bigger metall bracket for more connectors which is imposible to remove without getting the intake manifold out. So there is even less room under the manifold. Besides that, the rubber piping is shorter (less pieces), which means that the metal part is longer and gives you no room to play with flexing pipes to fit things. My elbow was not going all the way down due to the heigh of the metal piping. To remove the metal pipe, the coolant flange screw has to be removed. Perhaps you can pin this info, because it might be useful for other people with the AJQ. Really tedious job. Cheers and thank you again, mate

@Witty924 10 месяцев назад

Hi Riddler, thanks for the comment and support. Glad the video helps. I know on the 225 you have extra parts in the way so a little more work involved. Also having the manifold off gives you a chance to replace the gaskets as they can be a vaccum failure too. Dont forget about the throttle body if you do unplug it, I'm sure it may need recalibrating. Good luck tomorrow 🤞👍

@Level_Up_Nation Год назад

People watching this for help, first part of advice I would give is to save you some headache, remove the front bumper and intake, when you go to replace all your cooling lines on the car, best to do the cooling lines and EVAP at the same time, also just buy a block off and block off the EVAP, SAI and the vacuum box on top of the valve cover, all of this causes you Boost issues and will be the reason for a Boost leak, IF your State doesn't do emission test.

Did you replace the suction pump too? I’m struggling to find where the suction pump goes

@Witty924 Год назад

Hi Zach, thanks for the comment and support. So it sits under the air intake manifold. Its additional pipework and depending on if you have the 180bhp or the 225bhp it will mean digging a little deeper. This link may help on the audi forum which details the suction pump.

@Witty924 Год назад

Hi Fotner, thanks for the comment and support. Make sure the new oring is the same size as the old one if its slightly bigger it will stop the pipe fitting snug. That said, use a little oil or silicon spray on the oring and end of the pipe, just to lubricate enough so it slides in more easily. Hope that helps 👍🤞
