CrazyOneToo is on a distinguished road
My 2002 X5 3.0 is using oil. It's hitting the ground tho so I'm guessing my CCV has already ruined my valve cover gasket.
Hopefully not my valve cover. Fingers crossed.

Sooooo anyway.....I am confused. I saw a pic (maybe here, maybe not) of this CCV delete done with a big loop near the pcv valve to keep it vertical.
Is that recommended?

Also does anyone know the size of the dipstick tube so I can get some of those push on nipples that are so tidy?

Lastly since this bypasses the CCV does that mean I can completely remove all the other CCV related items?
Items such as the valve itself, the cut off hoses, connectors, the now unused dipstick hose, etc.

Thanks for this awesome write up.
