Ive already cleaned and reset the throttle body didn't make any difference to the cold start, does drive a bit smoother though, was after info on the pcv system as looking to clean and check that

The first heads up I got about the pcv system was from the missis sayin her exs astra had the same issue but thats an egr valve, I hope they're all easy fix solutions for you

Im planning on putting new silicone pipework and deleting it like you have and doing the same with the n249 valve I think too

Sfs our miles cheaper and better than anywhere, ring them direct, and its 25mm and 19mm hose, Ive kept all the pcv and jus ran it straight to the catch can but there is a cold side turbo inlet that had been installed prior me owning her so I dont really know what standard pipes.she had lol
