Mk7 Volkswagen GTI - Oil Separator Replacement/PCV DIY (Beetle, Passat, Jetta, Alltrack, and Golf)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 16 сер 2024
- ►Mk7 Volkswagen engines feature a crankcase ventilation system (PCV) that is crucial to your engine's performance. If your crankcase breather/oil separator is failing, VW offers an updated genuine breather replacement.
Although Volkswagen doesn't consider the PCV system a regular maintenance system, it's well known that these parts fail quite regularly. The symptoms are easily diagnosed as other failures, however, the PCV system should always be checked early on in the diagnostic process as it's easy to replace/repair and the parts are affordable.
Today Aaron Davis is here to show you how simple of a job it is to remove and replace the PCV on top of your engine with just a few basic hand tools.
Symptoms of a failing PCV system can start to show at any time. However, most people begin noticing symptoms around 60,000 to 80,000 miles. PCV system issues show up in many different ways, with some being easier to diagnose than others.
The symptoms are:
Vacuum Leaks
Illuminated Check Engine Light
Illuminated Oil Pressure Light
Rough Idle
High Oil Consumption
Lean & Misfire Codes P0300 & P0171
Idle Regulation Codes
Whistling Noise from Engine Cover
Oil Leak from Rear Main Seal

I successfully completed this PCV swap on Saturday while doing my spark plugs and coil packs (since I already was going to have them out). It was much easier than I expected and any questions were answered when reviewing the vid again. I've noticed a vast improvement in my car's idle consistency- hopefully this was the gremlin I've been chasing after.
Thanks for the DIY vid and the parts! 10/10
I’ve done this replacement many times but I watched your video as I always do very good instructions step-by-step gets a 10 out of 10 thank you. BK
Glad you approve Brian! Thanks for watching
Dealership charging me 1,600$ for this. Looks like I will be taking matters into my own hands! Thanks for the easy to follow video.
Lmao my VW dealer only Quoted me 380 for this one and 2 hr labor
Literally they want 1000 from me. 250 fornthe part and 700 labor like wtf
Aaagh! NOW I see why the hose doesn't match up. There's a piece on the old one that goes to the new one! THANK YOU! This resolved my headache!
Make sure to put the hose back on also. Good video
Great point!
Thanks for this video i got it done, few curveballs in the 2021 pssat with a metal plate in front of it so you have to loosen it to remove the PCV but overall it worked!
Dude, great video... this literally helped me so much.
Phenomenal job! Thanks again.
Glad it helped, thank you for watching!
I have a question.I have oil in the spark plug tube number four. Is that because of this pcv? or the valve cover gasket ?
thank you for this. VW wanted my gf to pay 850 to have this thing replaced on her beetle dune 2016.
this is dumb easy.
A friend’s niece just spent $1,900 today to have the valve and spark plugs changed on her 2016 Golf with 70k miles. The shop also did an injector cleaning and oil change. Do you know what the cost of a genuine oil separator valve is? I see tons of knockoffs for $30 and up but it appears a more or less genuine part is $200 or more. The shop charged nearly $800 for the part.
@@thardyryll$1900 is fucking insanity
@@anthonymolinaro9494I
After more than 50 years of working my own cars, it always floors me to see what shops charge. I get the labor charge, but when $10 spark plug is $40, that is hard to take.
@thardyryll FCP has the service kit w/ OE/OEM parts and it was a little over $300 IIRC. Just ordered the cheaper version ($170) last week.
More like a stealership... holy smokes.
At 1.31 what do you really pull up? A lengthy tube or what? One inch holes left on the engine block? Should on protect them with a rag or something?
what Nm should the torx 30's be snugged to?
I really like this video, can you assist me get an OEM PCV for my VW Passat 2014 1.8L Turbo?
I replaced my faulty pcv valve . In the hope oil pressure would come back up the pcv was definitely faulty is there anything else common on them
Will this work for a 2018 mqb Tiguan?
I have a 2017 Jetta 1.4 L Oil separator leaking as per the Dealer, its not in the same spot as the 1.8 L do you have a Video on location and how to change for 1.4 L ? - This video great by the way
Great video. Well lit. Good angle. Good info and the onscreen graphics are an amazing touch
Much appreciated!
Thank you for the video. Please assist me to get one for a VW Passat SE 2016.
Could a catch can be the cause of white smoke coming from the exhaust pipes after a new turbo install/upgrade should I switch back to the original pcv no symptoms of a blown head gasket
Did that seem to be the issue? I have white smoke coming out of the exhaust as well. I know you made this comment a long time ago
Nice DIY, Thanks
I saw a video that says if you remove the oil cap when it’s running and it pulls a strong vacuum / upsets the cars idle substantially then the PCV is bad. Is that accurate? I tried it on my car and it seems to respond just as described above and I have been chasing a cyl4 misfire for a few weeks now. I’ve changed plugs, coils, had intake valve carbon cleaning done, etc so I’m thinking maybe PCV at this point
Any updates? Did you replace the PCV valve? I'm having similar issues
@@adudenamedsean I did end up replacing the PCV but it didn't help the issue I was seeing. Sadly I don't have much more useful info. After I swapped that PCV valve and the issue persisted I got flustered and traded the car in for a newer GTI.
@@BrandonLanczak thanks for the info!
Is it possible that the MAP sensor on my CDGA engine is getting oily due to a PCV failure (cracked diaphragm)? Engine is erratic on idle and light throttle, while on full throttle or during engine warm-up works just fine. Errors are: ***P0106: Manifold Absolute Pressure/Barometric Pressure Circuit Range/Performance Problem*** ***P2177: System Too Lean Off Idle bank1***
My 2015 Passat 1.8T is burning about a quart of oil per month. Im hoping this solves the problem. 135k miles. Changing the plugs, PCV and running some injector cleaner through it this weekend. Fingers crossed.
Did you solved the problem?
I have a Golf MK7 1.8T with similar problem. Started this week and I ordered a new PCV. But I will probably include a intake walnut blast to clean the valves and mainfold.
@@RafaelKoike I have not. I replaced the PCV and plugs and it does run better in general, but the rough idle issue is still there from time to time. Im going to try some carbon cleaning over the next few months and probably replace the MAF too.
@@LaminarSoundis it still burning oil after the pcv change
@@r3spect21 oh yes. Im going to have the dealership do a carbon cleaning soon. Hopefully that tapers the oil burn a bit.
These plastics on my pcv are yellowish ive heard that also means its bad
Not necessary to put some oil on the rubber seal prior to install?
I have a 2017 Audi A4 turbo my car won’t start remove spark plugs and found out the cylinder are full of oil you think the oil separator is bad?
My 17’ GTI is consuming or leaking about 1 qt of oil a month. I took it to a shop and they said they couldn’t find a leak anywhere. Would a bad pcv valve cause oil consumption? I’m at 82K miles and I’ve only recently started having this issue. The engine doesn’t seem to be making any noise that sounds like a vacuum leak, and is idling fine.
A bad PCV could cause this, but it is also worth checking if the car is burning the oil; ie on cold start or heavy acceleration.
My 2020 Jetta GLI with an EA888.3 has the same exact PCV valve system and is starting to show signs of failure at 66k miles. I did follow the steps in the video to remove the factory installed PCV. However, the PCV body atop the valve cover is not coming off of the valve cover despite my best efforts. It is behaving as if it is stuck/vacuum sealed to the valve cover even with all seven T30 bolts loose and all outlet hoses detached.
Has FCP Euro or anyone else who conducted this repair experienced a PCV that is stuck to the valve cover? If yes, what was your strategy to remove it? I am doing everything in my power to avoid prying on the PCV to avoid damaging the mating valve cover surface and other surrounding parts. Any help is appreciated!
Hi Preston, unfortunately this is not something we have come across on our own end here. Keep us posted on how you make out, and if you have not already, try removing the oil fill cap incase it is some sort of vacuum holding it on.
What do i need to check to know if i have to replace it? Or what are the symptoms?
Audi A3 8v - Same platform
Recently I brought a original oil separator but seems like air leak vesseling sound from the valve area is that possible to have the manufacturer claims?
Any torque specs ?
You completely forgot the first step. COMPRESSED AIR. You have to blow the sand and grit off of it and around it or you'll dump that junk into your motor when you go to pull it off.
Dirk that is indeed a great first step, as Aaron mentioned you want to be careful to not let contaminants into the head of your car. But using some compressed air or wiping it down prior to starting the job is a great additional step of prep to take before tackling this job.
thanks man just did it.
What is the part number for the t30 bolt in minute 2:08? Mine was corroded and when I put it back it broke.
would be the same procedure for a 2015 Passat 1.8 turbo charge?
My hose going to turbo inlet is fouled with oil as well. Also oil seepage from oil cap. That's def a bad pcv correct? I don't have any codes. Maybe a bit rough when initially accelerating from a stop
I have oil seepage from the oil cap as well and my pcv valve appears to be leaking.
Did you end up replacing the cap and pcv valve?
Is this the same thing as the breather valve?
do u have any video from golf 7 1.2L?
Thenk you
You're welcome!
before putting cover on how about starting and check for leaks?
That's never a bad idea after installing anything mechanical/sealed to the block!
my ignition coil broke in two while trying to take it off....
Great video
Thank you!
I have oil in my coolant.. Can you guys assist MK7 GTi 187000km.. Please help
My GTI has a boost leak coming from that exact area. It’s a super loud hiss, almost sounds like a damn fuse from a firework. Could a bad breather hose/pcv valve be the culprit? I noticed oil on both ends of the hose when I was in there replacing my DV. Thanks, great video btw!
It could be! Glad you like the video Roberto!
I have the same issue. Trying to decide on replacing both the hose and the valve.
@@seanmcd72 check your charge pipes first, one of mine had a massive tear in it.
@@OfficialExcide I will double check those. I was suspecting the diverter valve causing my whistling but I fiddled with the pcv hose last night and today I never heard the whistling under boost. There is definitely a leak or oil is blown onto the hose coming from the valve going down towards the TIP
Hello! Excellent video! Can you help to find the place of the oil sensor 3 (green) in that EA888 Gen 2? I have a P168D error and I need to try to change this sensor for a new one.
Its on the front of the block just to the right of the water pump belt. Its purpose is to report there is oil pressure in the piston cooling circuit when piston cooling is called for by the ecm
@@tipptop9 Thank you very much
How do you know when it’s time to replace the pcv valve?
Did you figure this out?
@@danny192 -remove- -the- -dipstick- -with- -your- -engine- -running- -and- -see- -if- -it- -sucks- -air- -through- -it- . Also an excessive oil consumption like a quart every 3k miles may also be an indicator. *EDIT* I actually replaced the pcv/oil separator assembly on my 2015 vw passat 1.8TSI and the engine still sucks air in through the dipstick tube. After further research it seems to be normal and nothing to be concerned about. I'll try to keep you posted on whether replacing the valve fixed the excessive oil consumption after I drive it for a little bit...ask in case I forget and I'll post about it here. I tend to check my youtube notifications.
@@kris8263 Did the PCV replacement fix the oil consumption?
@@Mr_Furey No, it made no difference whatsoever.
So what did you fix next to stop oil consumption?,@kris8263
Anybody have a problem with the T30 bolts stripping the head ?
Where is this unit on golf mk7 1.4 tsi?
I have a P2279 code, will this be a fix for it? If anyone knows .....
I have the same code now, curious if you found a fix?
Just bought a 2014 beetle have same code, did you guys fix it by pcv replacement, and is the pcv suppose to blow air out thru that little hole on the side or suck air in?
Thank you!
Thank you for watching, Nivan!
@@fcpeuro Gonna head to pick up my pcv replacement tomorrow, so will be watching it a few more times ☺
could a failing PCV cause the valve cover gasket to leak?
Yes, too much pressure in crankcase can cause different leaks
Hey man when you say it’s leaking do you mean from the pcv itself ? My car just started consuming more oil than usual and no leaks or no smoke and I was thinking maybe pcv but I have no other symptoms but oil consumption no surging no whistling no rough idle so I was wondering if it could still be the pcv. I even went as far as taking it off to inspect the rubber seals and the valve looked fine
Mine is in the same circumstance. Do u have any updates
I think my pcv valve might be the root cause of oil consumption. I also noticed some oil buildup around the pcv valve.
Let me know your thoughts 👍
Hey @@kristoefur
Any updates on your problem?
I have minor oil leakage around the PVC and my oil consumption raised through the roof. I've just checked the tube ending within the intake bridge and it contains much of oil. Did you have similar symptoms ?
Is this something that would cause a rough idle on a cold start but as you drive it, the rough idle goes away?
Hey Keola, there is a chance it could, I would advise inspecting for any smoke coming out of the exhaust when this is happening.
Carbon buildup?
thanks!
Youre very welcome!
Could this cause oil to leak from the valve cover? I am thinking this might be my problem
You might need a valve cover gasket. I think they are a liquid gasket.
@@brucetec6597 I think that might be my problem getting a slight what I think is a burning oil smell in cabin sometimes.
how much cost part of pcv valve ? for mk7 golf
We'd have the parts price listed on our site! If you'e having trouble finding it on fcpeuro.com shoot an email over to service@fcpeuro.com and the team would be happy to help.
