I would like to replace PCV valve on my 2003 ES300, does anyone know where is it located and how easy/hard is it to replace ?

Thx

 

I just had the dealer replace mine on my 05 ES....the part was $6.00. Not 100% sure exactly where it is.....but it took their tech about a minute to do it.

I'd be interested where the location is too so I can do it myself next time.

 

I think in that year of the ES it is a metal PCV, not the plastic one like I have here on my 99RX, but given we both have 1MZFE engines you should find it around here by the left side of the intake manifold.

 

I would show you guys where it is. But I cant find a good engine pic to circle it out....


Lexmex beat me to the punch...

 

Clean that engine Lexmex!

 

LOL, occasionaly it does get its wash, https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=241019

And so much of that exhaust tubing and even the intake has been changed out from the photos shown.

 

Here is 104,000 miles clean:

 

JSM1284... could you point the PCV valve in your picture ?

Thx

 

I actually think they stopped using a serviceable PCV valve. Here is my 2002, Notice instead of a PCV valve, its just a breather fitting:

 

what about a 2000 ES300, any different/ would that year have had a serviceable PCV valve?

 

I believe it may be serviceable in 2000. Take a look at it to verify.

 

where do i look?

 

2000 should look almost exactly similar to the one I showed of my RX300 above. The changover from plastic to metal I believe occurred with the 2001 model year.
