I can't say why your new PCV wouldn't rattle when shaken but any PCV I've changed would rattle some when shakened.

They rattle. It's the valve rattling in the casing that makes the noise. If it doesn't rattle, then it's not really a PCV valve, probably just a necked-down fitting like the trucks have.
