PCV filter - can you replace it?

[stokefan]

Hi all,

I searched and got this thread : http://www.micra.org.uk/archive/index.php/t-9482.html

but I wondered if I could replace the PCV filter thing as it seems really gunky and wonder if its doing some harm (now and again there are small stones on the mesh bit of the air intake :-S)

has anyone ever replaced it? If so where did you get one from?

cheers.

You can get one from Nissan.

£2.07 + vat according to my local Nissan dealer. The parts guy I spoke to said they are changed as part of a Nissan service so if its dirty would probably be worth replacing.

What does it do?

it fits in the airbox and filter out the oil and gunk from the camcover breather.
