it has one. you take off the black plastic cover that runs down the middle off the intake. theres a little hole there where you'll see the pcv valve screwed in to the underside of the intake upside down. the best way to get it is with a crows foot. i believe theres a how to in the how to locker.

You can check my locker for addition pics on the use of duct tape and the crow's foot. Remember to set the rachet wrench as if you were tightening a bolt since the PCV threads "up" into the intake.

If it's bad your crankcase will build up pressure and possibly push out or cause seals to leak. A telltale sign is your engine oil dipstick will keep pushing up after running.
There will be no CEL to indicate any issues with the PCV valve.

I was able to get mine out with a flex-head gear wrench. It takes a little more effort, because you're exerting torque perpindicular to the nut, but it works. The metric set of 'em is about $20 more than a set of crow's-feet, but I'm constantly finding handy uses for the wrenches. Just used the 17mm to change the oil last night.
