For Toyota cars, specifically Vitz.

The Toyota dealers have NO idea what a PCV valve is.. I believe their dealer shops don't have it either.

Have you ever got it checked and replaced? Anybody know what Toyota dealer has any idea about it and do they also sell a replacement?

I think they call it Ventilation Valve.
Check the following part number on google for confirmation: 12204-47060

I see, also found this part number: 12204-40030 ..

BUT..

Do these Toyota workshops know about this and know how to get it replaced ?

i believe you can find it easily in open market too (as for Suzuki cars). they call it 'blow' valve in desi terms. keep a pic of it with you for reference purpose for shop keeper
