Yes, if you are referring to the 3rd page on the service records, that was the PCV valve which is part of the valve cover. The dealership replaced the valve cover and did the spark plugs at the same time.\r\n\r\nWhat is the condition of the rotors and pads? All rotors and pads were replaced at the same time as the tires (2021). When I had it at the dealership in April, they measured the pads at 10 mm remaining (full is 17 mm in the front, 16 mm in the rear), and the rotors are in good shape as well, but unfortunately, I don't have a measurement on those. All in, you should be able to get a couple more years out of the brakes.\r\n\r\nHow are the diff and DCT holding up after 80K miles? The tech who completed the latest full inspection at the dealership (April 2023) said everything is running well.
