Hi,

I blamed CCVs for my problems (although they look fine, not too dirty, no ruptures), but then I found these pics...





(Thanks Healthservices for detailed DIYs, used your pics)

And the thing is... The vent pipes are different on my car!

On my car there is no that big vent pipe #1 (diagram below). Instead, pipes # 2 and 3 are connected where the #1 is supposed to be (according to the pics).


(RealOEM)

So my question is... what is the right way? Is part 1 interchangeable with 2&3? What is the correct connection?
RealOEM shows that the part 1 was only produced until late 2004. So did they just start using 2&3 instead?

Thanks
