Detailed Description

This PCV valve grommet is built to replace the original sealing grommet used on select Volkswagen engines, including many Volkswagen Golf, Jetta, and Passat configurations from 1982 through 1998. The rubber material helps maintain a secure push-on fit around the PCV valve, supporting proper sealing where the valve mounts to the engine. For buyers searching for a Volkswagen PCV valve grommet, Dorman 42348 offers an OE-style replacement for common import applications.

What It Helps Address

• Cracked or hardened PCV valve grommet material
• Loose PCV valve seating at the mounting point
• Vacuum leaks caused by a deteriorated seal
• Oil vapor seepage around the PCV valve opening
• Fitment issues when replacing a worn Volkswagen PCV grommet

Installation Notes and Tips

Inspect the PCV valve and surrounding mounting surface before installation. Clean the opening thoroughly so the rubber grommet seats evenly, then press the grommet into place using the push-on design. Confirm the PCV valve is fully seated after installation, especially on Volkswagen Beetle, Golf, Jetta, and Passat applications where a tight seal is important for proper crankcase ventilation.

Quality Assurance

Dorman engineers this replacement grommet to match the original fit and function on specified vehicles, with a focus on durability and reliable performance. It is built as a direct replacement for the listed Volkswagen applications.
