I had to replace the Tees on my coolant lines. One disintegrated at 304k miles.
While in there I pulled the ventilation hoses on the valve covers to inspect. The hoses were cracked and hard as a rock. Bought new ones and a new ventilation tee. Some of the hoses and the tee has this sludge. It almost looked like what you would find in a bad radiator.
I know this 2011 Land Cruiser has a lot of miles on it but any concern of things I should look at? It runs like a top. There’s doesn’t seem to be any oil consumption and no coolant consumption.
It’s odd to me that ventilation hoses would have sludge as there should be nothing pumping through them.
