I hope that someone can help, enlighten or send me in the right direction. I have been on the chase of an oil leak on my DS. This lead me to the EGR since it was seen on the back side of the EGR valve. I also have taken a look see on the throttle blade and there is a little but I would think not enough to worry about. I then proceeded also to check my PCV system!
Well all the vent filters (K&N) are soaked and my PS below the vent is covered in oil. I took the inline check valve and PCV valve also off to check. I saw oil on the top of the inline check valve which would leave me to beleive that oil was being pushed back into the intake. Is this normal??!! I tested my PCV valve and it was well useless. I used a foot air pump to test the valve and it lets in air in the direction of the engine. But the inline does not let air in, at least with the foot pump. So this is saving me big time.
So what is my problem. HOW OR WHY WOULD I HAVE SO MUCH CRANK CASE PRESSURE TO CAUSE ALL THIS OIL TO GO EVERYWHERE??? Should I replace those valve cover vents since they are soaked? I just hope someone can help with my situation as I would like to rid or reduce the crank case pressure. And the oil mess!
Thanx for any and all help
