Would a duff PCV throw up an error code on VCDS or not?

Probably no...

It can bring up a P0299 fault code.

I fitted the 'N' revision PCV yesterday and the whole unit appears to be more robust, heavier than my old PCV and a much better fitment.  I also fiited the NGK BKR8E-IX plugs and dont have any flat spots around 5000 to 5500 rpm like I had before.  I was going to fit the RS4 valve to eliminate the flat spot but I dont need too now.  I am not sure whether thats down to the better PCV or the new plugs but either way the engine runs loads better now.

I think I'm going to fit the latest PCV revision rather than my forge catch tank. When was the last revision made? And where can I find the part number on my PCV to identify which it is?

Thanks

Ring your dealer mate, give them your reg or VIN and ask them what the part number ends in (they'll probably refuse to give you the whole part number). I was told the 'P Revision@ is for the BPY engine code, not BWA or BYD. The part number they gave me for my 2008 08 Edition 30 (BWA) was 06F129101N so I didn't require the rear pipe.

Thats pretty much exactly what im doing, changed plugs already and plan on doing the pcv valve when it arrives in the post, glad to hear you got good results by doing it - the plugs made a change straight away aswell  :happy2:
