Maverick, you should not be upset about grommet. PCV valve whole another story. I am not sure if any of the manufacturers require grommet to be replaced with a new one over the lifetime of a vehicle. Oil fumes inside the engine "melt" this thing like a butter. I wanna see the new grommet that I've installed in couple of years to judge if original grommet installed on VX was no good to begin with. None of my previously owned vehicles required a replacement of grommet. Though they've required other major things to be replaced
