Well, it finally happened to me. 65k and valve/cam cover needs to be replaced

SYMPTOMS: Surging idle, random loss of power, whistle from the pcv valve on the valve/cam cover. If I plug it with my finger, runs fine. :)

This should be covered under powertrain warranty, but still a pain in the arse.

ANOTHER NOTE: When I plug it with my finger, I notice a random squeak coming from the water pump area. The WP was replaced by the dealer at 45k. Ugh, hope it's nothing. WP still under powertrain warranty?

IS that manifold check valve covered under powertrain?

So I'm taking it to the dealership and that the original owner purchased from. They took care of my previous recall and warranty work (leaking trans line, flash CPU, replace WP). I called them today and the idea is to take it there Friday to show it to them. I know it's the PCV valve, but does anyone have a copy of the intake manifold TSB that I can take with me? I'm worried that they might just replace the valve cover but it ends up the root cause was the intake issue.


Also, once they replace the valve cover, did I read correctly on this site where that part now has it's own 12 month/12000 mile warranty? I would love to have anything I can print out and bring with me if possible. I'll have the codes that I captured on my phone. Text Font Line Screenshot Icon

Took my car to Stutzman Chev in Winchester, VA today and they had it fixed within 30-minutes. Excellent customer service for the 3rd time by that place. If Chev is listening, please give them a pat on the back.
