Default PCV valve?

What is it, and where is it? My owner's manual says to change it at 60k miles, and I just passed the mile marker. 07 Aspen 5.7L.

I would change the spark plugs, PCV valve, EGR valve, and clean the air intake. THe PCV valve is on the driver side valve cover near the firewall and it is a blue plastic,

cleaning the throttle body is a good thing to do when you change the EGR valve.. make sure you take it off and clean both sides of the butterfly valve... you'll be suprised how much carbon is built up

The pcv is a closed type system on this engine. It is right next to the throttle body on the intake manifold passenger side

Would someone post a picture of where this PCV is???? We've looked for hours trying to find it. I have an 06 4.7

Even in this post two people have posted different locations.

Where is this unicorn???

your 4.7 is going to have it on the fill neck for the oil. its a 90 degree pcv that has a rubber hose going into it. take the hose off, the rotate it down, then pull it out
