I can see only using one port on the vacuum manifold being a problem as well but not so much for your oil in the catch can.

Fifty- sorry it didn't work out for u as it did for me.My concern is the high vacuum that runs with this MOD .I am not sure if it is detrimental to the engine and its seals .Some anecdotal reports on RMS stopped lealing cause of this MOD.
Hoping that my leak is an OFHG which I have not changed yet and not the oil pan nor RMS. Have not added oil since the MOd and despite the small oil leak level is quarter above low. |

Long-term report on 2006 X5 3.0i 6sp MT...
- Nov. 2016: 122K miles: oil consumption ---> 1qt/400 miles. - Aug. 2020: 135K miles: oil consumption ---> nothing at 5K oil change interval. FYI: if you remove the PCV valve and connect the hoses directly using a simple metal reducer, the crankcase vacuum will be excessive and you will hear a loud hissing vacuum noise (very scary sound), been there done that and posted in this thread. So far, I am very happy with this mod. This mod using the Duralast PCV valve definitely increases the vacuum to the "correct" amount. I will remove the Duralast PCV valve for inspection and photo for the group soon. In many cars, this kind of PCV valve *should be* replaced every ___ yr/miles. Does anyone here know the proper interval for let's say Duralast generic PCV valve as in this mod?
