Default Do I have a record for the PCV filter?!

Changed mine over today, and saw the one in there was the fatter old original one
202,000 miles and no apparent change, it was solid and gunky as you can imagine

Have you ever attended any of our meets at either, The New Inn, at Heckfield, or the Ely at Camberley, can't remember if you have. If not you are most welcome for a chat

HI Tom.
Do not know if it is record with regards to the mileage and the PCV filter change ? but I recently changed/replaced a manifold, EGR, and PCV filter for a member and his PCV filter looked like it had never been changed from new, most certainly a long time anyways, few pics below of the said item, it was solid and the EGR was not much better Arctic

183,000 miles and never changed, I just give it a good shake in a jam jar of petrol every oil change.

Ah the thick edging of black gunk of the EGR, we had that when we got the car, I think the poor car we got wasnt particularly well taken care for many years, the past year Ive often joked I may aswell buy all the spare parts and build a new car!
