Thanks for this understandable and easy to watch video. After watching, I replaced the pcv valve on my 2015 Kia Soul in about 5 minutes or less. Yes, a woman, by herself, over 60. Thanks again!
Your welcome ! just saving the world one PVC value at a time.
I bought a kia soul 2018 last year with 62 k miles
Had the oil changed at the dealer last week and was told the dipstick did not show oil mark. They could not figure out what was going on. I googled it and found out it could be a dirty pcv valve and here I am watching this video. I'm gonna replace it tomorrow. Thanks!
Just bought a 2015 Soul. I have no idea how thorough the previous owner was with the maintenance, so your videos are gonna help me tremendously.
Awesome, Glad i could help!
Thank You!!!! I just try to see videos like yours,and now I know how to change the pvc,thank you 👏👏👏👏👏
Your welcome!
Hey thanks for the video , I have a Kia soul myself and my car is throwing a pcv valve code. So this was very helpful thank you !
Glad i could help.
Thank you for the info of changing the p c valve Much appreciated
your very welcome
Thanks for this. The valve was $6 at Oreilly's Auto Parts. Easy switch. Old valve was so carboned up it was pitch black. Car runs much better along with the new spark plugs I put in.
Thank you !! I’m changing it today !!
Wonderful!
Hey,thanks again . I appreciate you and your how to videos C'ya, Ricky
Thanks Ricky!
Well done again. If I can offer a suggestion, you show part number on the couple of videos I have watched but those only pertain to that one brand. If you have the ability to provide a list of the most frequently used brands and their part numbers that would be the only improvement your videos and subscribers could ask for. I bet your local parts supplier would do that for you just to for the price of a mention. Cheers
Thanks, gonna do this today to my 2019 model.
Good luck
How's it going, does this apply to a crdi variant, thanks much
Hi, I have a 2013. My RPM doesn’t work. I change already the crankshaft position sensor and still having the same issue. Can you help me with that?
Thanks for the video!! I just purchased a used 2012 Soul 2.0l. Useful info, listing symptoms. I'm experiencing misfires, from what I can tell. Happens more so when in gear, but it isn't constant rough idling...seems like a misfire. Check engine light just came on. I'm going to replace the PCV valve followed by replacing the plugs. Hopefully that works.
Would love an update to know if it made a difference.
@@poochiew.9302 replacing the plugs and PCV valve did nothing. What fixed the misfiring was installing new ignition coils, which cost me about $100 for 4 (always replace all 4 at once) from Amazon. Very easy fix. Bought it with 155k, now has over 180k kms... haven't had any engine issues since.
great vid !
Thank you..thanks for stopping by.
@@notsofast2325
instead of loosening it, i tightened it. now the pcv valve is bit loose.....lol
i pray oil won't leak...... ! no problem so far....
Plastic cover is made out of plastic. That's genius! 🤷🏻♂️
i know.. its a gift. lol
Thank you
You're very welcome!
is it the same for the 2.0
Excellent video, thank you very much. Do you have a video where the fuel injectors are replaced?
i don't understand the question.
@@notsofast2325 I have a 2015 Kia Soul and I want to change the fuel injectors. I have seen several videos of Kia but none of the Soul. Have you done that job?
@@notsofast2325 a video on how to change the fuel injectors on kia soul?
@@haiderps4 maybe this spring. so stay tuned...
@@notsofast2325 ok thanks somuch🌷👍🙏
Is the code p050a also a symptom?
The Soul and Sportage especially burn oil. In fact they had to settle with the US government giving a lifetime warranty. If your red engine light goes on or a code shows up in the instrument panel, immediately take it to your KIA dealer.
thanks for the info.!!
Where do you find this settlement? I have a 2018 soul but not a lifetime warranty
They differ from year and engine size. Some have the metal valve and some have the larger threaded area plastic valve.
thanks for your input.
Hello I love your videos, recently I watched your video because I had this problem ☝️, I did what you showed us in this video, but now my A/C is not working, do you have any idea, what it could be, I'm sweating now in my car 😓, please help, Thank you 😊
Well your pcv value has nothing to do with your A/C . You may want to check your A/C Refrigerant. It may be low.
@@notsofast2325 okay Thank you 😊 I will do that.
The plastic cover is made out of plastic?
Thank you for giving the Kia Soul some love. PSA: drain & fill the transmission oil every 50K at the dealership or reputable independent shop. Mind you, if its been 100K without a fluid change, talk to a professional.
Thanks for your input
I agree. I bought a 2019 model with 44K miles on it and there's a very rough downshift problem when slowing down, coming to a stop. I'm going to do a full transmission flush, hoping it solves it. I'll know soon if this was a good deal or not. I know other owners reported the same problem and got it fixed by having the transmission control module being reset but sometimes the problem would come back. Other reports just say this is a Kia transmission problem out of the factory, a problem with even new or 5000 miles, just not known for smooth shifting... I'll see.
This is a good instructional video, however I attempted to change the pcv valve in my son's 2016 Soul and it snapped off...😭
bummer..
does the car have to have all of these symptoms, or can one or two qualify it for a PCV valve replacement?
it can be one or all. but it is so easy to do and the part is cheap.
What is that silver round part with the green sticker on it? I hear a fast ticking coming from the tube attached to it in the front.
I believe it's part of your EGR system.
that's your high pressure GDI fuel pump, the clicking is normal, usually quiets down as the car warms up, it also clicks after shutting off the engine, careful, that thing handles fuel at several thousand PSI
Shove it
thanks for your input.
Please provide an Amazon link. This way, your subscribers can say, "thanks". Peace.
This part can be bought at any parts store. It's cheaper to buy it at your parts store and your supporting your local business than on Amazon. Thanks for your input.
and I am going to change out my PVC...that I can understand with the carbon build-up
good luck, thanks for stopping by.
Kia says spark plugs should be changed every 100K miles...I have never gone that many miles on a set of plugs...what kind of plugs get that type of millage... just curious .my Kia soul (2015) gets lousy gas milage around town and that's just about all I do these days...23 mpg at best....normal or not? Ed
i change my plug regularly ( 40 to 50,000 miles ). For better MPG , well i would check your air on your tires, the type of gas you use, make sure your not carrying extra cargo weight, PVC valve , air filter, don't by cheap plugs, make sure you have good plug wires, and make sure your on top of your oil changes . and you have good tire alignment. There are some additives you can use to make sure your injectors are clean. hope this helps.
Probably every 20k miles changed also ngk copper or iridium works perfectly
Iridium long life spark plugs last 100k , i just replaced on my highlander second hand, previous owner never did them at 121k and still working, bad condition but still going
I reuse my pcv
.just needs carburetor cleaner spray inside the pcv to unclog the dirts until you can hear the ball shaking freely inside the pcv valve
yes you can do that if you want. PCV are really cheap to buy. but yes you can clean them. you'll never get them super clean but in a pinch you can clean them.
I'm surprised that the replacement pcv valve is steel going into an aluminum engine housing ,two different types of metal contacting one another causes electrolysis. The factory oem is plastic which will not cause the electrolysis condition
Thanks for your input
So is electrolysis good or bad?
@@denisemartin3603 it depends in what form.
Horendous oil burners. Pcv valve leaks, and oil consumption is insane.
Yes , Thanks for your input.
Great video, do you have to call them n*pples? 😆 Hilarious
"...this plastic cover is made out of plastic..."
yeah as yourself , im not perfect
😂
