04 S60 pcv problems

Post by 04s60shine »

Hello!

Are there any temporary fixes for the pcv overpressure issues? I'm worried about blowing out gaskets but have no choice but to drive it like this right now. I just recently put new tires, brakes, shocks, springs on it and have to save for a bit before I can spend any more money. Can I vent the dipstick tube to air box or something like that in the meantime to reduce the pressure?

Thanks

No, the best way is to replace it. Tho I kno that isn't what you wanted to hear.

How long do you plan on going without changing it? A week? Month?
