[QUOTE="Alan Peters, post: 1021031, member: 58139"] Confirmed the hose was plugged/wrapped. Not sure why but replaced the hose which wrapped around the back and passenger side of the engine. PVC is tight but does wiggle slightly in the valve cover. Is this normal? I did have a dealer put dye in the system to trace down a possible cause to this. PCV hose was replaced about 8/12 and the PCV replaced 4/12. I've put about 100 miles on it and all is good so far since the repair. Oil was like pudding. Been 8000 since the oil change and always put synthetic 5w30 in. They did confirm the valve cover is every so slightly leaking but not enough to cause a significant issue. [/QUOTE]
