* there was never a recall for PCV6. So no guarantee any specific car has it. AND PCV6 is no guarantee there is no sludge - but it helps.
* PCV6 includes the hoses pictured PLUS a new oil trap (black box). Used to be about $50 for the kit and maybe an hour or two to install.
* unless you have PROOF it was done recently (pictures) the oil pan MUST BE DROPPED as soon as you get the car home for internal cleaning and inspection. I've seen too many 9-5 owners that toast an engine soon after they buy a sludged car.
At 120k you are in the prime time for heavy maintenance as Steven mentions. Car better be very cheap.
