@@bromohamad81 Hello, It's best to remove the valve cover and if the membrane is damaged, the problem must be there. we solved the problem by replacing the cover. Thank you for inquiry. Max
Of course. You are right. The entire exhaust system may be oiled. When the old oil will smoke, it should no longer smoke white, only if there is still a problem somewhere else? There are 100 questions and 1000 answers about cars... Best regards.
Z14XEP not the same has no membrane with pcr valve is molded to cam cover part of cover hard to get off plastic welded with metal got 2nd hand one and it broke trying to get it off not meant to come off, crankcas gas leaks under the cover, rip off for new one
I am trying to clean crankcase breather hose with Tenzi Brudex, it is a strongly alkaline cleaning liquid that dissolves carbon deposits. A few washes and it's still dirty, but it looks like it will be clean soon. I do the same with the intake manifold.
@@ukaszkarpik3476 Yeah but the problem is that cam cover has no membrane the cover itself is the PCV to intake and it gets hairline cracks so cleaning it won't necessarily fix it. And how much they cost is ridiculous. Ive seen people get they underneath part off which looked like they didn't break it but I bet when they resealed it still leaked. Ive even seen people fiberglass it and still leaked. Its a bad design and annoys me for a well designed motor. Its like the twin port sensor flap they try to sell you the whole new inlet manifold but you can get some aftermarket sensor flaps if you look hard but not easy to get. Rip offs is what they are.
All the second hand cam covers I got are full of carbon and can not be cleaned. I suspect oil gets trapped behind the plate that is welded to cover and cannot drain back to motor and as such gets sucked out of cover through the thicker of the 2 rubber pipes. All the covers I tried, the smaller of the cover connections for the rubber pipes was blocked. Is the small connection meant to be blocked off? I don't think the z14xep has a pcv valve?
@@david-dj8or No the cam cover is the PCV it vents the crankcase gas back into the inlet manifold through the thick tube. The small tube goes to some sensor behind the plenum chamber which I dunno what that is. I couldn't the get that plate off without breaking it either but a guy on the Vauxhall forums managed to how I have no idea its an old thread he never replied. I think it is blocked crank gas journals that cause a pressure build up and the gasket to leak and the inlet vacuum suck oil in, many have cleaned them out and replaced the gasket and no longer get the oil vapor mix. Remember the gasket must be fit correctly those thick pieces around the crank gas journals people often crush them. The milky oil under the cover is the crank vapor leaking from the gasket. Another theory is the plate under the cover gets hairline cracks due to it cooling faster than the head, which lets crank vapor in but to pressure test that cover would be almost impossible. The one I broke had no carbon at all. Apparently you can soak it in something that dissolves the carbon but I don't think carbon build up is the most common reason. Its such a stupid thing there is sensors on opels that do nothing they just put them there in the factory.
@@HonchHeado I have looked more closely at my engine and don't believe a PVC system is even used on my engine (Z14xep chain drive cam) The tube from rocker cover to the air intake connects at the atmosphere side of the throttle. Most PVC systems connect to the engine side of the throttle where there is vacumn. If the vapor and oil was being sucked from the crankcase then it seems there would need to be an air inlet to the crankcase, which I could not find. I think it is pressure in the crankcase which pushes the vapor, oil out.
Very good video: important info! Thanks!
Z14xep не поможет, там в крышке нет клапана, а в этой крышке просто прохудилась мембрана и ее можно поменять но сложно
Thanks, enjoyed your work.
this operation solved the problem of oil eat ?
😃😃😃 perfect I have a problem like that
nice explanation my brother
What’s that seal called so I can order one
Hi there buddy I have the same issue with my 1.8 petrol insignia 2009 what’s the name of the part please thanks
Where are you from bro... My car is same problem .. Can u repair my car.. I am in Australia and
Bro , i have the same problem , this solved the oil problem from exaust ?
thank God, I'm glad you're satisfied, best regards
Brother @@MadMaxTheProducer I mean , will this solve my problem with the blue smoke ? Has this for you solved that problem with the blue smoke ?

Brilliant 👍
Is the same problem at x18xe1 engine?can the pcv change on this engines or its compact?
thx for help dork
can dis be also the reason the the plugs keeps getting wet
Πόσο πρέπει να αφηγούνται η βίδες τού καπάκι (n.m)? Ευχαριστώ
3:02 isnt that PCV valve?
if after replacing the rocket cover the car is still smoking white, can it the the oil left in the catalytic convertor or is there another problem?

@@MadMaxTheProducer is it possible that the oil in the pipes makes the first ignition difficult?
@@user-cx3lm2wl5m Of course, it takes quite some time for the system to be cleaned and working as it should...

Z14XEP don't have this membrane
That engine hasnt been to service regularly. All that carbon buildup.
My z 12xep doesn't eat oil after 13 yrs. They're just terrible drivers who save on maintenance.
Dober posnetek
i got same engine car has weak engine braking. What could be the problem of that? Feels like Im driving in neutral.
