How to Replace PCV valve of Honda Odyssey

[@derrickd3012]

Thanks for sharing, i have a 2006 Honda Odyssey. 246,800 miles in the original engine and transmission and its still running strong. I have to change out my pcv valve but it got stuck inside the valve cover . Going to the parts store to grab a pick set to pull it out. Hope you have a great day

247K is quite a bit of miles! Awesome. If by 'stuck' you mean PCV valve is not coming out, this happened on my 2013 accord and I used a blunt knife to get in the narrow space where PCV valve meets the engine, inserted blunt knife and just pushed the valve out.

Is the PCV valve supposed to make a noise when you shake it? I got an OEM honda pcv valve from Amazon but I didn't hear a clicking noise when shaken. I'm worried it might be defective and cause more issues then fix if I install it.

A new PCV valve that is not clogged with oil should make a clicking sound when shaken - or at least it did with all the ones I have installed. If you bought the OEM from Honda dealer selling on Amazon then it should be a good part. Be sure to lookup that particular Honda dealer online to ensure this is actually a real Honda dealership and not one that exists only in name. If you are not satisfied with the part then return it vs taking risk with your vehicle, and purchase part from local honda dealer. They often have coupons on their website that offer discount on parts.

Would this cause bad oil consumption? I am curious because my van uses a lot of oil and I sometimes get blue smoke out of the exhaust.

Replacing the PCV valve should help solve the issue, not cause it.

did it solved the problem?

It has been a month and so far it looks like it has had positive impact. On my 2013 Accord the change in PCV valve helped greatly minimize the issue (didn't fully solve it). If interested, check out the video I have on my 2013 accord. For this 2010 Odyssey I will add an update to description of video after 1000 miles and will keep adding to help others. Just check back later. Thanks
