PCV Hose Posted by JerseySaab [Email] (#666) [Profile/Gallery] (more from JerseySaab) on Thu, 25 Apr 2019 14:30:33 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
The Uro brand PCV hose that I installed several years ago in my '97 CSE started showing surface cracks very quickly. Now there are major splits in it so definitely time to replace.
Eeuroparts currently carries two replacements, Uro for about $42 and Genuine Saab OEM for about $99. The Uro item is made in Thailand and the Saab part in Sweden, so I know they are not the same part. The question is How much better is the Saab part and is it really worth over twice the cost? Both parts do carry the "Parts for Life" warranty so at least in theory if another Uro hose cracks apart it would be replaced.
Any other known options? Both choices seem amazingly expensive for a PCV hose!
