Wink PCV Valve Cover Replacement

Hi,

I'm getting some conflicting info on the PCV Valve whether it's replaceable or it can be prier out in some way and fitted back in some way for a N55 engine. As you can see on the link below;

https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/11127570...item362efd7890

they state that it is removable?

Or is the N55 engine different for a X1 , 2 3 etc.. than a N55 engine for 135i or 355i? I thought economy of scale in mass production will reduce the manufacturing for BMW?

I guess if it's possible to only fit this part then it will definitely be a time and money saver. unless the valve gasket is leaking as well... but still the gasket is still cheaper than a whole valve cover..

please advise if some have tried and what's the verdict?

I understand for the minimal amount of $, the peace of mind investing on the valve cover will be worth it's while but just weigh up the alternatives. like everything in life now a days.

cheers,
Appreciate 0
