I've been meaning for some time to overhaul the PCV system on my car and now that I've just finished spending time and money on the suspension/steering one of the PCV hoses has split so I've got to do it. (why is this car starting to feel like a needy child?)
Having done some searches here and online I've got to a point where I'm confusing myself with the variety available and the the spurious ones that pop up. So can anyone recommend a simple one stop shop for a kit with all the bits I'll need? The car is as in the signature 2.5, 10 Valve, normally aspirated, built summer of 98, reg autumn 98 but a 99 model year. The 98/99 thing has caused some issues with parts in the past so if necessary I'll look up the actual engine/chassis number.

I bought all the individual parts from PFS, seems like a kit is only available for turbo engines

I have bought mine from Caffyns in Eastbourne. Very helpful & they give a discount for club/forum members. Ask for Chris

I got mine from Rufe at FRF Swansea Volvo dealers - not too expensive with the C3 discount, and you KNOW you're getting all the right parts at the right (best) quality.

I agree. The FRF team have rebuilt the cars we play with and they know what they are talking about. We spent a lot of money with them when we rebuilt the V70R and they were a wealth of help/knowledge. The discount often means that the OE parts aren't much more than quality aftermarket from Euro and so FRF is always the place we go to.

Thanks Guys
Calling FRF was in my plans, I looked at PFS (happy to deal with them as they are reasonably local to me and did a good job in difficult circumstances for the steering parts) but they only do a Turbo kit. Looking at buying all the bits separately I'm aware that when I do the job I need to do it relatively quickly rather than have the car in bits and waiting for a couple of days because I didn't order the most inaccessible part, looking online I didn't find any sort of list of parts in a kit and the pictures of some seem to be generic pictures of a PCV kit/system, one was even of a BMW system?!? so not a lot of help to be sure I've got all the right bits.
