suction from oil dip stick?
Just did the oil change on the recently bought camaro,when checking the oil level with the car running you can hear suction when removing and placing the dipstick back in place. Normal? Is something wrong? My other cars never did this.

It's deff suction, sucks my finger in. If the pcv valve goes i thought this caused positive pressure?

So A- okay to drive? Great to know.
And that's what I meant if the pcv valve wasn't functioning the opposite would be happening?
