Can I replace the oil trap and clean the hoses? Just trying to avoid putting big $$ into it until I know if I have seal issues or not.

Thank you for the replies. I just did the glove test, attached is the pic., as you will see it's partially inflated.

Is there a 50% chance the leak will go away? Or does the PCV blowout typically lead to replacing a seal somewhere?

Attaching a pic. Arrow is where the oil is spraying up

I have 2001 S80 t6, 198K. Sold the car at 9AM on Saturday 10/17, took the car back at 3PM same day with a massive oil leak. Looks to be PCV related by all the reading I've done. My question is, when a leak like this happens is it certain that a seal is blown? Meaning additional work beyond the PCV? ...

Thank you for the information, I found similar confusing info. Looks like both types were used. I read some references to 2.8 using free wheel, but nothing that was a solid confirmation. ALT is just shot - not producing any longer....been on it's last legs for awhile.

I need to replace the alternator in my 2001 S80 t6. I am trying to figure out if it is a free wheel or not.

I was able to get part numbers off the back of my current alternator, 0124515017 944284. I know it's 120A, as I can see that as well.

Any help appreciated.
