the car threw the evap code p0497 code which is the silinoid( pardon my spelling) but what is the possible fix for this or cause of it....also i lifted my hood today while the car was running and it was making a random tick sounds like from under upper charge pipe but its not costant it ticks then stops and 5 seconds later it ticks again and i know it not the usual motor tick these motors make...anyone have a clue?

 

Its most likely normal ticking, unless you over-reved it. These cars have tons of ticking at idle. As for the Evap code, it sounds like the purge solenoid went bad. Its a 15 dollar part and the solenoid is on top of the intake manifold next to the MAP sensor.

 

idk what it is...its a weird not normal tick which my guess is a valve but either way the car is just now constantly one problem after another or ***** wearing quick or whatever and im gettting tired of it already ive only had the car since february and i kinda wanna get rid of it already

 

The only way I see it being a valve is if you over-reved it or your not using factory spec oil, but anything is possible I guess. Make a video of it if you can and ill try to diagnose it further.

 

i dont over rev it bc even beating on it i shift at 5000rpms but the car like hesitates if i go any higher and quciker shift which my guess its a clutch problem there but ill have to try to make a vid of it for you and i get my oil changed at a chevy dealership so i know thats not the problem either

 

I've seen dumber things from a chevy dealership, lol. Not following the specs for engines specified on their computers.

 

lol however i do agree with you there bc i know at my work only one tech actually knows what hes talking about the others are like morons...i mentioned the cat warm up feature saying not to drivfe it right away and let it warm up and the dip **** didnt listen and drove it and said if i ever experienced it bucking right after you start and i told him yeah if you dont let the car warm up first...he looked at me like oh **** this guy just showed up a certified tech for chevy

 

You might want to replace your solenoid. It can make a tick but should be constant. I bought a brand new one and it constantly ticked. Never threw a code as it ticked.

 

This. Here's the solenoid:



I think it's $32. You can remove it in about 2 minutes. After you remove it, blow into it. If you get air going though it, it's stuck open, and needs to be replaced.
