I checked on FCPGroten and the pcv kit is listed for $113.25 does that sound like I am looking at the right item? The kit says it includes everthing except the intake hose will I also need that? Also do you think that I should replace any other parts, as like a preventetive maintainance? i.e. clamps...

Do you guys think that maybe I should clean the flame trap and maybe change the pcv before I go to the dealer complaining about the ETM. I would hate to have to pay them for diagnostics check, if that is not the problem. Another thing I have noticed is that I have white smoke coming from the dipstic...

Thank You for your quick response. I'm sorry but I am fairly new to forums of any kind. I looked around a little and could find nothing on Dons ETM section anywhere. If you could direct me where and how to find it I would greatly appreciate it. Thanx again.

I almost forgot, when I slow down to a stop it seems as though the tranny is having trouble downshifting.

stalling out and low idle

I have a 1999 v70 wagon and I have been having problems with the car stalling out as of late. It started out as only stalling once in a while, but now it is anytime I come to a stop. It seems to happen more often when the a.c. is on. I don't know if there is a simple diagnosis for this problem or if...

One thing that I forgot to ask is if I do have a clogged pcv, would that cause the oil light to come on.

Sean, I saw that you posted a how to on cleaning pcv, and I think it will be very helpful. You will have to excuse me, for I have never posted anything on a forum and really don't know how they work, but I am learning. So everyone, please be patient with me. :oops:

Thanx Sean, I did check out this thread and it is very helpful. I pulled the dipstick while the car is running as SaltyDog said to do, and there is light smoke coming out of the tube. I also pulled the cap and there is oil in the valvetrain. If there is smoke coming from the disptick area does what ...
