Pcv filter
Have been reading up on the pcv valve , does anyone know the filter part number, is it best to change the filter or the complete unit?

just change the filter and the seals. https://rimmerbros.com/Item--i-LLJ50...yABEgIN-vD_BwE This is what you need cheaper elsewhere though..

Just changed the PVC filter. Remove the air filter cover. 1 2 3 4 Maybe do the air filter why you are in there. 5 https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Rover-75-...sAAOSwUPdeo2ye

Do I remember buying a ‘fit for life’ PCV filter to my diesel 75? I think it was a BMW part, from the BMW dealer, and IIRC I even got an owners’ club discount.
On the other hand, my memory might be faulty......

I fitted the BMW part, it replaces the filter altogether.

All down to personal preference. I've fitted the vortex type because the one thing they can't do is block up, unlike the originals.
The problem was they were designed to be a separator, but in reality acted as filters with higher mileages. |
