Anyone got any ideas??

Check my QX4 out http://www.cardomain.com/ride/3310765

I'm doing this tomorrow, i'll take and post pics. Hopefully it'll help.

Here is the engine compartment in full. We will be working in the area between the brake fluid resevoir (big round yellow cap) and the engine block (big silver thing in the middle)

Here is a close up on that area. Notice the four hoses in the center with the silver clips? The PCV valve is located inside the on the bottom right

Here is a picture with the hose removed. You can see the PCV slightly.

Close up picture of the PCV. It is quite a tight squeeze to get a ratchet in here so I removed the two hoses above it to make a little more room.

And last but not least - here is the PCV removed and the hole in which it threads into. Shake the valve and listen for a rattle. If it doesn't rattle - replace it!

Hope this helps!

Hope this helps someone else as well, Thanks again to Ron for the pictures.
