Frequently asked questions about Vauxhall PCV valve change & replacements
Read our answers to questions about PCV valve replacement costs, symptoms and more.
What does a pcv valve replacement on my Vauxhall involve?
- Mechanic will inspect the PCV system and valve for leaks.
- If necessary, the mechanic will replace the PCV valve, by disconnecting the PCV's hoses.
- Mechanic will advise if any other parts need to be replaced (like the oil filter).
- Mechanic will reconnect the hoses.
- Mechanic will run the engine and, if necessary, test drive the car.
- Adjustments are made where necessary.
What are the symptoms of a bad Vauxhall PCV valve?
- When the 'Engine Oil' warning light is on.
- When the engine runs at a higher temperature than usual (overheating).
- When there are leaks underneath the car.
- When there are leaks / moist patches near the engine.
- When the engine does not run as smooth as usual.
How long will a pcv valve replacement take on my Vauxhall?
A pcv valve replacement usually takes around 1 hour, but can take less or more time. Ultimately, the time that the job will take will depend on a number of factors, like your vehicle's make and model, year, as well as other factors. Select your car at the top of this page for information on job time and cost for your vehicle through ClickMechanic.
How often should I replace my Vauxhall pcv valve?
Over time problems can occur with the PCV valve, this is mostly down to poor maintenance. It is therefore advisable that the PCV valve is cleaned or replaced each time the spark plugs or air filter is replaced.
The valve can, for example, get clogged up with oil sludge. Inadequate oil change intervals are a main cause for the valve going faulty. Should this happen, then the engine is at risk of being supplied with too little air, leading to a fuel mixture that is too rich and, potentially, a damaged engine.
Should you experience an issue with the valve, it is advisable to have the PCV valve inspected and, if necessary, have it replaced.
How much does a PCV valve replacement on Vauxhall cost?
Prices for a pcv valve replacement range from £75 to £95 with an average cost of £85. Ultimately, the cost of replacing the valve of the positive crankcase ventilation (PCV) system depends on your car and what parts your car's manufacturer recommends using for the replacement. Find out what you could save by having your PCV valve replaced by ClickMechanic by selecting your car at the top of this page!
