Hoping you guys have some input. We bought our 05 Tahoe with about 40K on it. It has always used oil. It now has roughly 70K on it. I'm somewhat used to this since, I've owned other vehicles with LS motors, but nonetheless its annoying. I found some people saying to add a PCV filter to the PCV system. But then one guy responded and said GM actually has a fix for this, and it is a redesigned valve cover. He had GM change it at no charge and claims the issue has stopped. This is the first info I have found about a redesigned valve cover, wondering if you guys have heard of it, maybe know of a PN for it, or can educate me on how to get this to stop. Thanks

Everything I've found on the web has to do with the AFM (active fuel management) system. Aint seen anything about the PCV or valve covers.
