BMW N52 CCV testing.

[yeeg]

Great video..and I'm glad that u actually answer all the questions in the comment section. Wish I could see ur video earlier.. i spent 2 hours looking for videos/ a vacuum hose connected to the PCV nipple..damn

[scooot]

Man I wish I’d found this video about a week ago. I needed to replace my valve cover anyways because I’m pretty sure it was cracked, but I had the whistling noise and it would have been nice to confirm it was indeed a broken diaphragm.

Just replaced mine with $10 aftermarket PCV on Amazon. Took me about 15 minutes to get the job done.

I think some people just put a open flame and see if it goes back and forth

[aimized]

What is this tool that you used please in desperate

[jesserivera]

Question. Today I accidentally broke the nipple to the ventilation whole. Will this cause any problems? I see on the video it’s used to test the actual valve cover but will it cause any damage if the nipple was broken off. Thank you

HELLO yes maybe i am doing something wrong..BOTH THE NEW aftermarket and the old original BMW PCV shows its leaking when i hook up the handheld vacuum pump as in ur video..maybe I am doing something wrong? and why would a brand new aftermarket leak??? ALSo how many pounds of air do u pump into the pvc? I have two rows of numbers on my vacuum gauge??? PLEASE REPLY..like i said I am doing exactly like ur video..with a hand held vacuum...2008 BMW 328i sedan N52 engine...I don't have any whistling ..just a few rpms just upon first starting on old one....why would the new aftermarket test bad??
maybe something wrong with vacuum pump??

[gail]

that little end cap on the end of PVC valve that u pulled off..does it have a piece of rubber in it..mechanic said its suppose to and mine doesnt?

[ShowMeWhatINeedToKnow]

I don't have a vacuum pump. Can I just suck on the hose?

[gail]

HELLO PLEASE HELp do u do this with valve cover removed??? also, EURO video says you block hole in rear valve cover where the ccv hose attaches, before u do the vaccum test on pcv valve Hope u respond thanks

[renzodacosta]

So is that top vent supposed to be capped off? My own is open and idk if its missing a vacuum hose why it hesitates

[BeigeTuna]

Hi, can this be done with the rockercover still on the car?

[mynorflores]

Can I ask what the name of that tool you used in the video?

[gail]

sorry to bother I have a BRAND NEW BMW 328i VALVE cover in its box..when i hook up the handheld vacuum like u r doing, It wont hold the vacuum...its brand new, OFF car in box..am I doing something wrong? do u have to block the hole in rear valve cover where CVV hose attaches while doing this handheld test..I hope to God my new valve cover is not bad..please explain

Hello!
I have the magnesium engine with the CCV on the manifold, there is a pin like the one you tested in the video but mine is in the top of the CCV body, could I test my CCV from that breather or is something different?

[DutchlimitsDesign]

What were the symptoms when it was on the car? My car has the separate ccv, but it consumes oil. Kinda rough idle on cold starts but not significant. I'd like to find the issue of the oil consumption (1L/1000KM)

[rajanroo]

Some companies actually make the diaphragm for 60 bucks. Pry the lid up and replace. save yourself 400

[fishonnelson]

Nice work… no matches and flames and blindly cutting off components..

[kwatoggurutv]
