RE: pcv change
Hi, It will help, but it may not stop leaking, the damage has already been done, being a turbo you need to change the oil out every 3-3.5k miles, poor maintanance will lead to varnish & gum building up in the motor, more so with a turbo charged engine. i would not drive the car till its fixed.
good luck

RE: pcv change
ok. so i took the car down to a car wash and had a nice cleaning and had the undercarriage done as well. when i returned i placed a few newspapers under the car to check for oil etc. atfirst it was bluish in color but thats the cleaning from the car wash, i had only gone down to the car wash and back home, about a 10-15minute trip. so i went inside for awhile then just went back out to check on the newspaper color and saw a few spots of oil. what the hell could it be now, any suggestions? thanks in advance.

ok, so i drove around town, testing out the car, seems like the oil spills not half as bad as before. however returning home only being gone for no more than like 30 minutes or so, my car was smoking. it was comming from the engine as did before changing eveything. my husband said it was because the oil was on the manifold, spelling probably wrong. sorry. anyways any reason now this might be happening? thanks again in advance

RE: pcv change
ok. thats what my husband may have thought too. you seemed to know alot about these cars, he even said the same thing, especially when you mentioned the o ring, he said the same thing. lol. thanks, will have to change a few more things and just hope it stops smoking. it wasnt bad, enough tho. i really do love this car, we have a toddler and a baby on the way, and theres so much room in their. i owned a 93 sedan i think it was a 940, anyways that old car needed so much work, and this one is in great condition inside and out. thanks again. my husband owns a porshe that hes been doing some work too. both cars we own are great. but hes not as familiar with the volvo, but learning. thanks again.
