Yes that is the correct part number as changed mine yesterday and like a different car now!

Why you changing your pcv? If it runs rough with oil cap off that is good.

Ps the DV is actually known as Turbo cut off valve to the morons in dealership

thanks for making me re-read the link in this thread.  In my haste I have misread it.
I can now see that if the engine stays the same - no difference in idle then the PCV valve is gubbed but if it starts to struggle its ok.  Mine was struggling so looks like im ok.

That's £40 saved !
thanks

Rev g diverter valve changed this morning. I have to say it was fiddly to get the right tool in there. If I was to do it again I'd probably get the front up up ramps rather than go in from the wheel arch.  It was chucking it down with rain however which was not great! A different car now though!, thanks for all the help.
