Right, audi doesn't call a PCV valve a PCV valve. Its most commonly known as a breather hose, breather valve, crank case recirculation valve ect.

 

If you wanna know where it is, look at the silver Y turbo pipe, on the back on the driver's side you will see a black "hockey puck" looking valve there, thats the A.K.APCV valve.

 

Breather pump valve could be the correct name?

Checked the AudiWorld forums. Hard to get promptly meaningful info.
Every time having difficulties to get a useful info; the format of the posts is kind of old fashioned and cumbersome.

The full sized photos of shiny cars is not what the forum is for.
Show some discretion…
Many of us are using the forum during business hours a having cars and girls on the screen is not the most attractive event..

Please…

 

I guess it could be called the breather pump valve, if it looks like that hockey puck thing i described then thats the correct part. Can you see it on your engine?

 

I spoke to the parts department at my (only) dealership in town.
The partsperson has no idea what pcv or breather valve is.
He faxed me an Etka schematic where I have not yet identified a component that resembles the valve from the photo (AudiWorld).

Is it possible the BEL engines not to have that infamous valve?

 

nemohm: if you are using firefox, use adblock plugin (i believe) and it will block all signature pictures and adds. You have to manually tell it which pics to block, but once all set up, you only see posts, no annoying pics of half naked girls sprawled over a car at work/anywhere. My belief is we all own A6's, why do I want to see what your A6 looks like, I know what an A6 looks like.

 

Jeff,

Add control plugin works well.

Thank you,

 

Breather pump valve (as on the photo on AudiWorld) is called suction pump, feature om 1.8T engines only.
There is no pcv or other ventilation valves on 2.7T (as there is no documentation - even dealers said "no").
If somebody has proof of existance, please provide photos.

 

A suction jet pump on a 1.8T is not even close to a PCV valve. This is the PCV vlave on my S4 2.7T, if you don't have this then you don't have a PCV valve. "puck valve"

 

What is the formal name the "puck valve" known in the documentation - Bentley (ElzaWin) ?
Which car system is it part of (emmission control)?
