PCV buzzing, but code p1405?
2000 Expedition, 5.4L. The pcv valve buzzes all the time, which I will assume is some type of vaccuum leak? Code p1405/service engine comes one & goes out about every 50 miles. Should I replace the pcv hoses or egr sensor?? Or replace both??
Thanks, Adam

Is that hose a cut-to-length item from parts store or a Ford only part. Would you have the Ford part number?

01 XLT 5.4 - FWIW - Recently had PCV failure symptoms (no codes - excessive blue smoke on startup) at 80k miles, replaced the original MC valve, which immediately solved the problem. The only one the parts store had was a Fram. After replacing, started getting the loud buzzing in the engine compartment, traced it to the PCV valve. Read on another site that if you replace the PCV valve, use a MC - Fram and others use a spring that resonates/buzzes. Haven't tracked down a MC PCV yet, but expect that will solve the buzzing issue.

Now the pcv, is it common for them to continually rattle or buzz?? It's not really loud or annoying, it just noticable when the hood is open.

Is the replacement hose just a regular/appropriate size of rubber hose or something you had to buy with specific part number?
BTW, I use a replacement PCV I got from Autozone, I don't get any buzzing sound at all.
Thanks

This was one lucky occasion that I had 1/4" vaccuum line in my garage. Cut it to lenght & worked it in place.
Think I'm going to the Dealer & purchase the PCV Kit & replace the valve & line too..
