I think I am going to tackle this myself. The tools are not ultra special, any of the ones I dont have, I can buy them for a decent price.

Does anyone have any suggestions of what else I should replace, or what else to look for while I am in that area replacing the CCV? i.e. some regular maintenance items, or other common part failure signs?

Here is what I am planning to get:

11 61 7 533 400 - Oil Separator Valve
11 15 7 532 628 - Vent Hose
11 61 7 533 398 - Vent Pipe
11 61 7 533 399 - Connecting Line
11 61 7 504 536 - Return Pipe
11 74 7 797 175 - Vacuum Hose

11 12 0 030 496 - valve cover gasket set

- Replace Oil and Filter

- Any thing else?
