PCV valve
I keep getting a mass airflow sensor fault. I just discovered that a non functioning PCV can cause this fault. Where on earth is the PCV valve on a 2005 maxima with manual transmission???

If it's like the 5speed, which i don't see why it shouldnt be, it is located behind the intake manifold. Right next to the 2 green plugs. Removing the windshield wiper cowl should give you more room to access the pcv valve.

Thank you
You gave an accurate description. Does it unscrew or just pull out?

unscrew. 22 or 24mm(I cant remember which one) socket or an adjustable wrench (crescent) will help.
