Hey! I just bought a Audi A4 B7 with the 2.0 tfsi BGB engine. I dont know alot about repairing cars but i watched some videos and everything pointed to me having a bad pcv valve ( the engine fault code, rattling engine and the suction created when lifting the oil cap). So i bought myself a new pcv valve from billstein, and installed it, without major issues. But now when i start the engine it rattles like absolute crazy, much worse than before. Does it maybe take a while before the pcv valve gets enough oil to run smoothly or did i break something bad?


Im in desperate need of help

      Hello, I would recommend to contact a mechanic. Without proper diagnostics it’s hard to understand what the problem might be.
