In a 2012 Chevy Malibu with a 2.4L engine, you can locate the PCV valve on the valve cover near the right side by the intake manifold. This is a common spot for the valve to be placed. The PCV valve's role is to remove gases from the crankcase in your vehicle and channel them back to the engine for burning and eventual expulsion through the exhaust system. This process helps in reducing overall emissions from your engine while driving. If the PCV valve is failing, you may observe rough running of your car and a possible smell of rich exhaust due to increased emissions.
We currently do not have any PCV valves in our inventory.
