What does the PCV do? And what does the BMS version do?

Thanks Ian. I've read some DIY guides and there is mention of a plastic valve cover. Does this need upgrading/changing too?
And is there only one valve or one per cylinder? Vin, this could be a job for Northern BM. I'm ordering the parts today so do you want me to get an extra PCV for you?

I just installed a RB PCV in a mate's car today and noticed that the PCV didn't seem to have a spring in it. The valve just moves freely inside the body. I didn't notice my RB PCV being like that (I actually didn't look so not sure if it was or not). So, should it have a spring or not?
His car goes fine so I can only assume it's working as planned.

Is that a question or a statement?
I'm guessing you mean that it doesn't have a spring. If so, thanks for the advice. I'm feeling a bit more relaxed about it now.

The OEM PCV has a spring in it. So I wasn't sure if the aftermarket version should have one as well.

+999999 I spoke to local dealer and apparently "These cars are designed much better than to require that sort of procedure". Haven't found anyone in Melbourne that will do it so like I originally planned will DIY. But it shits me because I will possibly sell soon and if the buyer has half a clue will want to know about this and the water pump both of which I'll have done myself :/ |
