06E103217M – Will this vent hose work on C6/C7? This is the AUK chassis code.
i definitely want a kit. great vid
For anyone still wondering this relocation has been confirmed to work on the 2009-2011 c6 3.0tfsi
Any oil smell sitting in car at a light with ac/air on?
This is such a good informative video, I’m UK based and need to do my PCV asap. Not too confident doing this myself as I’ve only owned the car 2 weeks but I think even if I wanted to do this I’d struggle as I won’t be able to get the parts from these companies here in the UK. It would be good to know if there are any UK suppliers that have approached you though
I love the content and direction here (fantastic videos), but I'm struggling with MercRacing at the moment, I ordered the kit on June 4th along with everything else on your list to relocate my PCV system and upgrade to the 3.2 manifold (also doing intercooler bricks while the supercharger is off), I have the catch can installed in my S4 and have located the spot for the diaphragm breather, and have it all ready with the connection JB Welded and black taped into place (the links were extremely helpful). I've watched all the videos, and ordered and received all the gaskets and O rings for everything, and feel fairly confident I can do this. I emailed Merc Racing asking for tracking info, as the order email still read "processing" and also the very first thing I ordered. The package came today (6/17), but is was missing the throttle body spacer gaskets and the longer bolts for use with the stock throttle body… so another contact email sent through their sight. I'm going to rewatch everything this week to make sure I have the process fresh in my head, hopefully I'll be able to start next weekend. I had hoped to have it complete by now.
Hi, great video.
Any info on any shops or anywhere I can have it done on the East Coast?
Man what an amazing tutorial! Congrats!!
Wish I could do this to my Q7 but the Intake sits on top of the supercharger and the lines ran a little different, really not in the mood to mess with that and screw something up. Congrats!
Serious question…why didn't you just get a new breather check valve hose from fcp instead of using the oem one…Im asking cause I did a pcv replacement from fcp euro along with new hose etc but I'm getting a pcv code p052e00…I threw the oem away not thinking od need it. MYbe I should've kept it. But couldn't wait on the pcv relocation kit which has Been pre ordered for 3-4wks had to have car up and running for work. Any info on if a new check valve can fail? Or how do you check it
Can't wait for this kit! I bet people would be interested in a group buy to help with upfront costs too.
Hello, could this kit work on 2018 q7 with 3.0T supercharger?
Has the final kit been updated/verified on the Q7's 3.0T (Engine Code CJWB 2)? Mine is an '11…
