As a guy that will attempt repairs at the molecular level to avoid giving dealerships a dime I can appreciate the your effort and a job well done. I may be wrong but it seems that you arrived at a fix the hard way. From what you showed of the valve and the direction of pressure and flow the valve appears made to stop flow primarily in one direction. The clues are a fairly large hollow rubber cup seal mated with a weak solenoid, the inlet has a sturdy connection while the outlet is a friction fit hose barb, and the two o-rings. When flow is applied as when installed and tested with your machine the valve cavity on the solenoid side becomes pressurized and forces the seal against the seat. The solenoid only has to be strong enough mate the seal while the pressure builds - like seating the bead of a tire. When you tested the valve off the car by blowing through the barb end you got a false failure as the valve wasn't made to hold much pressure in that direction. The real failure modes was gunk preventing a seal at the seat and the rust under the o-rings preventing pressure buildup behind the cup seal. Cutting down the piston stop changed the operation of the valve from pressure assisted to direct acting. If the system is programmed to de-energize the solenoid and allow the valve to self-release when the pressure drops you may still throw a code. Some silicone at the o-rings may be needed to restore the pressure assist. I am by no means knocking your fix. Just offering food for thought if you or others come across a similar issue. By the way; I just spent many hours on-site crawling into, under, over, and around an F-250 SD plow truck tracking down broken relay signal wires from the PCM. It will be a week before my old ass can walk upright again so PLEASE call off the Karma Gods! I will not make any more comments about bypasses! ...unless you really deserve it.

I am glad to see I'm not the only one out there that does this type of thing. I, also, have spent hours fixing something that should have just been replaced and had people (my wife) say to just go get a new one. I refuse and pretty soon I have a fix and no money out of my pocket. Nobody does this anymore and it's good to see someone do it. In a shop environment time is money so it's not worth it. For a DIY'er in the garage, it's a solid fix. I was thinking while watching that I would have taken the plunger itself, chucked it up in my small old vintage Unimat hobby lathe and turned off just a bit of the plunger side. The grinder on the body worked too. The only thing I was wondering was how much pressure they decided that they wanted on the seal while activated. If you take off too much then there would be more pressure on the rubber seal, rather than on the shoulder of the plunger. This is real garage and field repair. For $150 I would have done exactly the same thing. Thumbs up!

This is actually a crucial part of a capitalistic system. Nobody makes money when you fix something for free. When the parts cannon is fired the part manufacturer makes money, the parts store makes money, UPS makes money delivering the part to the parts store, Exxon makes money when the parts store needs to buy gas for the delivery truck that delivers the part to the garage. The garage makes money installing the part. To a capitalist there are a hundred profitable reasons to fire the parts canon and zero profit in spending two hours tearing something down and repairing it. If Eric or Ivan had shops in a big city with high overhead there would be no way they could afford to do this type of repair as they would go broke within six months. The American economy is dependent upon robbing the customer NOT giving him the best deal. I make no value judgement as to whether this is good or bad I simply state that's how it is.

Another subscriber who's benefitted thanks to your trailblazing this. I live in the Midwest US rust belt and sure enough my vent solenoid was nearly as rusty as the one in your wife's Murano (if you still have it after six years). I bought a new vent solenoid instead of repairing the old one which I'll keep as a souvenir of insufficient engineering. How much more would it have cost to add a black oxide or iron phosphate coating to the bare metal surface to prevent it from rusting!!! It lasted 9.5 years before it triggered the PO456. I got tired of clearing the code every week just to have the DTC return like clockwork.
