Sonata NF (2006-10) :: CEL Came On With P0455 Code / Large Vapor Leak In Fuel Assembly

I have an 06 sonata 2.4l--last week the CEL came on so I took it to my mechanic and he said it was p0455 which is a large vapor leak in fuel assembly. We tried tightening the gas cap and resetting the code with a scanner but it came back on a day or two later. I have never overfilled my tank and i do not smell gas anywhere. the only real symptom (maybe non related)is my speedometer , it works but it is just a little slow to react when increasing or decreasing speed.---my gas mileage seems to be normal.We got under the car and looked around and couldn't notice any obvious tears in any lines -- should i try buying a new gas cap?--I was thinking it may be speed sensor but my mechanic said if it was the speed sensor , my tranny should be shifting funny , my trans shifts fine. I am at a loss and don't want to have to go to dealer with this.

Ford - Escort :: Code P0455 (Gross Evap Leak)

Car has about 75K miles. Son has the car out of town (again), at school. He reported CEL (SES?) light on; "what should I do?" Told him to have it checked. He has trusted mechanic nearby, so I told him to go there. They say they don't just read codes ("You can get Autozone to do that"); they do diagnosis.

Report: Code P0455 (gross evap leak). Did smoke test; nothing. "Did you maybe have it running when you filled gas tank?" (No.) They reset the CEL, and sent him on his way.

Should we be satisfied if CEL stays off? What else to try or to look for if same code comes back?

Passat (B5) :: MIL Came On - Code P0455 / EVAP Emission Control System Leak?

New owner of a 2003 1.8TPassat (29,000mi) as of the last 2 weeks and have just had my MIL come on. Scanned it at home with my Actron CP9125 scanner and got this code (P0455) which reads in the scanners manual as "EVAP Emission Control System Leak (Large)". Didn't know if this was a generic description of the code or VW has a more specific definition. What precisely this is in reference to, gas cap, vacuum hose????? Or what VW's actual description of this code is?

Ford F-150 - 1997-2003 :: CEL Code P0455 - Large Leak Detected In Evaporative Emission Control System

I own a 98 f-150 5.4 with 70,000 miles. I get a check engine light (code p0455-large leak detected in evaporative emission control system).

Replaced the gas cap with an after market 'stant' ( I believe was the manufacturer) brand. The check engine light went away for 4 days then came on again.

No obvious vacuum line leaks.... Puzzled.

Santa FE SM (2001-06) :: Error Code P0455 - Oil Leak In Engine Bay

I just joined the forum mainly to care of my dads 2001 Hyundai Santa Fe but also I got a check engine light on my way home from work last night.

From last night I saw that oil was all over the timing belt. Today I inspected it with a Coworker and his OBD II reader.

Error Code was P0455, EVAP - Evaporative Emission Control System Leak Detected (gross leak).

Now the oil leak is stronger since the oil spills is on hood (inside hood). I will make a picture tonight when I get home.

I personal think it's leaking from a tube/ valve on top of the timing belt (picture will show more tonight). Thinking of cleaning the timing belt area, then drive a little around or leave it in idle to spot where the leak is from.

Common issue? I googled around but since P0455 is a common issue (on my 9-2x as well) I couldn't find anything about this I am also limited from my search since I am currently at my work PC incl. strong firewall.

I will see if google let me find a picture...

Accent MC (2006-11) :: Code P0496 - Large EVAP System Detected

2009, 89K miles ... As title states, check engine light came on today and after the codes were pulled, I got P0496. It was referred to as "Large EVAP system detected". I'm guessing this may have something to do with the fuel vapor management system but not sure what's a sure bet to check.

Honda - Accord :: 2001 - CEL Came On Showing Code P1457 For EVAP Leak / Failed Emissions Test

I own an '01 Honda Accord LX with the ULEV engine and 178k on it. My CEL light came on about 6 months ago. Ran the scanner and it showed a P1457 (EVAP Leak). Waited until now when my inspection was due and expected it to be caused by the EVAP shut valve as I read that's often the cause of the problem with this code. Mechanic said that it can't pass inspection because of the OBD fail but that the diagnostic scanner showed everything functioning properly, including my assumption about the faulty shut valve.

He reset the code and said to drive it the 50 miles for the system to ready itself and bring it back in. As I've reset the code several times over the 6 months to see if it would self correct, I'm pretty confident it will come back on. My questions are, is it possible I've done damage to the onboard computer by not addressing the underlying problem 6 months ago? Are there emissions problems that are not checked by the diagnostic tool that the mechanic should be looking for?

Elantra XD (2001-06) :: CEL On For Codes P0451 And P0455

I replaced the purge valve a while back, i just replaced the ccv and gas cap. The light is still on. Could a bad Ftps cause both those codes? Do i possibly have cracked/bad lines?

Elantra GD (2013+) :: Water Leak - Large Puddle Under Spare Tire

I have a large puddle of water under the spare tire. This happened a couple of months ago and I took the car to the dealership. They said it was a seam above the rear tail light that wasn't properly sealed. They re-sealed. I checked it every couple of weeks and no water but heavy rain over the past few days (car sitting) I decided to check again and there is more water than previously noticed. It looks like it's dripping down the side of the spare-wheel area.

First noticed at 1300KM now again @ 17000 KM Elantra 2013 GT GLS....

Ford - Explorer :: Getting Code P1405 Large Vacuum Leak And Alternating Replace Gas Cap

Got 2006 Explorer back fron trans rebuild and probably unrelated but started getting P1405 (Large vacuum leak) and alternating "replace gas cap" errors. When I installed a new gas cap, error went from large vacuum leak -which I checked for on engine and found none using smoke test- to loose gas cap. So next, I changed the emission system valve which is right up front on rt. side of engine looking into engine bay. Now, error has returned to large vacuum leak. So new gas cap and valve. Error does not come back immediately after clearing. Takes about a week and then either get SES light and large vacuum leak error or just picture of gas cap on dash error. Note that when I remove gas cap, I no longer hear the "whooosh" of releasing a vacuum. Assume now it is in back by spare tire where I need to be looking. I note on emission valve that there is a schrader valve for testing vacuum....

Santa FE SM (2001-06) :: Large Coolant Leak On Top Of Motor

I just purchased a 2006 Santa Fe Limited with the 3.5l for a great deal. It has a huge coolant leak though that needs fixed. It is coming from the top of the motor on the left side by the timing belt. It is really a small flood, when you fill the coolant and turn on the motor it runs across the top of the motor toward the drivers side. There isn't oil in the coolant and it doesn't smoke. I had it dropped off at my mechanic though. Does the motor really need pulled in these to do the head? I heard that there is a overflow channel from the water pump that comes out right about there as well. Could that maybe be it? Any other options if it is the head gasket to reduce the cost any?

Ford - Focus :: 2001 - Large Coolant Leak From Engine

I drive a 2001 Ford Focus ZTS with ~133000. I just recently filled up my coolant reservoir with 50/50 coolant. 2 days later I needed to fill it again. I went through an entire jug of coolant in 4 days. It seems to be leaking from the top of the engine and the engine runs slightly rough and has a hard time starting some days (more often recently). How bad is it doc?

Intrigue :: Code P0442 - Small EVAP Leak

So I have had this code P0442 for a long time and I just kept clearing it. The attached picture (at an angle) shows the hole in the small line attached to the fuel neck filler exactly behind where the plastic wheel well cover touches it. Just ordered a new one from rockauto for about 65 shipped.

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: CEL Code For EVAP - Very Small Leak

Got a CEL tonight while driving. Originally I was driving and the light came on saying that my gas cap was loose. I corrected the problem when I got home and tightened again. The light stayed on however. I ran a scan with the OBDII and it gave me a code for EVAP- Very Small Leak .

I was reading around and some people suggested the MAF. Which would make sense because I recently had all of that stuff off and gave the engine a deep cleaning while it was exposed. I just don't see how the MAF could relate to the code my car is pushing?
