CEL - Code is P0455
esymonds replied to esymonds's topic in 996 Series (Carrera, Carrera 4, Carrera 4S, Targa)
i replaced the gas cap and cleaned the o-ring really well with silicone. i also bought one of those pocket scanners for piece of mind next time. i erased the code and haven't seen it come back yet after a couple of days. if it comes on again i'll start looking for purge valves and disconnected ventilation hoses...thanks for the help. -

wow, thanks that was fast. i've noticed before the code that the tank wasn't filling up all the way when i gassed her up. i've also noticed there isn't any pressure released when i remove the gas cap. do you think its my purge valve? thanks again for such a detailed illustration of the fuel system...i'm sure i'll be able to nail down the fix. -

just replaced my tranny 2 weeks ago. i have a '99 cab. i broke mine after launching poorly and slamming into gear, the synchros grinded so bad i thought someone was running a chainsaw against my engine. i had to use two hands to move the shifter out of third. car ran ok for a couple of months (ie. some lunging, and hard shifts) but then it started popping out of 3rd and 6th gear. i took it in and had a new tranny and clutch installed. cost me 9,000 grand all together. car shifts a lot better now.
