all repairs made are per customer complaint only so i dont know what your angle is? the lines to the valve cover do get clogged by condensation from short distance driving in cold weather. but there is no fix for that. do you have a N62 engine? based on your signature, it looks like you dont. you'll have to replace yours every 60-80k. i cannot tell you why its not recommended, it says in the test plan not, it is "not allowed"
