Default PCV valve repair



Hey Folks!

Reggie here in the DFW area. Happily ridin' around in Jazmine...2003 XK8. Need to replace her PCV valve. What should I expect for parts and labor?

Going to have Jim's Jag Shop do the work. Nice fella!

Something smells fishy. This car does not have a PCV valve.

Actually, it does. It's called the Crankcase Vent Valve. Item #AJ87773 Around $50.00 Located in the top of the right bank cover towards the front. Looks like a mushroom.

Good news is that Jim will do right by you. Just got my air fixed there. Take your checkbook or cash. No credit cards.

Yes, you are right. Thanks for the correction.

I think it was introduced with the 4.2 engine models. There earlier models just have breathers.
