Technical Service Bulletin
Technical Background
The conditions described may be
caused by a malfunction of the
crankcase ventilation pressure
regulating valve or turbo intake
pipe (Figure 1), resulting in
excessive vacuum or excessive
pressure being applied to the
engine crankcase.

Figure 1. The crankcase ventilation pressure regulating
valve and turbo intake pipe is circled here.
The guide pin of the check valve
in the intake manifold side of the
valve (Figure 2) may break,
preventing the check valve from
correctly sealing when boost
pressure is present in the intake
manifold. Intake boost pressure
may thus be applied to the
engine crankcase, resulting in
possible oil leaks.
A whistling noise or air rushing
sound may be the consequence
of an excessive amount of
vacuum being applied to the
engine crankcase. This condition
can be detected by verifying
whether the oil filler cap is being
firmly held in position to the
engine even after it has been
unlocked.

manifold side of the valve. (Depending on part number, the
check valve may be installed horizontally inside the
housing.)
