PCV Valve for 1998-2003 Toyota Camry & More - Standard Ignition V488

Help manage crankcase pressure and route blow-by gases where they belong with the Standard Ignition PCV Valve V488 — a direct-fit 1998-2003 Toyota Camry 3.0L pcv valve that also drops into the 1997-2002 Toyota Avalon 3.0L. It installs as a replacement for the 1998-2003 Toyota Camry V6-3.0L and the 1997-2002 Toyota Avalon V6-3.0L, both taking one valve per engine.

A PCV valve is the metered path that draws crankcase blow-by vapors out of the engine and back into the intake to be reburned, while its check action helps limit reverse flow. When it sticks or clogs, you can see rough idle, oil leaks from over-pressurized seals, or a whistling vacuum noise — signs the valve may need replacing.

• Positive crankcase ventilation: regulates the flow of blow-by vapors from the crankcase to the intake.
• Check-valve action: designed to meter flow and help limit reverse flow into the crankcase.
• Direct-fit replacement: engineered to drop in on the listed Toyota V6-3.0L applications.

If a stuck or clogged PCV valve is the cause of your symptoms, this replaces it. Always diagnose the underlying cause before ordering, since these signs can have other sources.
