Evap Vent Valve Selenoid Replacement
Evap Vent Valve Selenoid Replacement
So i have been getting all kinds of rough idle and random misfires at startup.
Been throwing P0455 P0496 and i think P0495 as well. It only happened once a week or if i just filled up the car.
So here are the pics for those that need instruction.
This first pictures shows the side of the Evap canister. Notice there are 3 hoses coming from the right and an electrical connector next to that. The hoses with a white connector have a release button on both sides so make sure to depress them both. Also, before you try to unclip them make sure to push them to the left first to help release them, then pull towards the right(passenger side)
Second picture is off that electrical connector push your finger down on the clip release on top. Press down on the release and pull the connector towards the rear of the vehicle.
Now i didn't show the other connector very well in the first pick. Here it is. Just pull the top of the red clip back then pull down on the connector.
Now on the left side of the canister there is a 10mm bolt you have to undo. USING A RATCHING WRENCH OR LONG ASS EXTENSIONS IS ADVISED TO SAVE TIME. This is the only one you have to undo. Ask me how i know.
Now look at the top of the big canister. It wedges into that slot at the top, so just pull it towards the drivers side and the entire canister comes out.
Sorry about the last step I forgot pictures. So just look at the vent valve. Turn it counterclockwise to release. I had a little trouble getting it to go back in but i spun it with a little down pressure and finally got it to go in. It turns in counter clockwise and should snap in facing straight down.
Then just reverse everything. The clips and hoses should all click when put back on. Wedge it back in there and put the bolt back in. Start car and check for leaks ans idle.

I understand you have an issue you need fixed, but can you please either pm people, or make ONE new thread instead of bumping THREE older threads?
