So I picked up my car yesterday and so far I drove about 60miles. A few hours ago the CEL went on and I went to autozone. The code is P0441 - I think that has something to do with EVAP or also a vacuum leak at the engine .....

Can someone comment on this. What should I be checking ...and where. Thanks,

 

Hmmmmmmm i think it may be the the gascap isnt closed tightly...........that can cause a cel to go on.....also look at the seal of the gas cap just incase

yea i checked the gas tank cap - but I just had my engine changed .... im wondering if its a messed up tube .... please keep replying thanks guys

 

bump for any more info

 

check all your vacuum hose

 

^ ya - I think that also - im off to give it a try and see whats up. I really dont want to bring this car back to the dealer for something like this unless I dont see a leak

 

I couldnt find any leak - I reset my ecu and I want to see if it comes back on. I pushed all the tubes in and fixed one of the clamps - I doubt my changes did anything so we shall see what happens

 

gas cap, if thats not it you have a leak on the intake tube to your EGR valve. If that isnt it it is a faulty vaccum solenoid or a bad EGR valve

 

Looks like they didnt put a hose on:

 

that would be your problem lol

 

Now the question is - where does that missing tube plug into?

 

It plugs into the vac port near the throttle body, I THINK. I mean, dont plug that into the vac port, get a hose that goes from the end of the thing you were holding, into the vac line near the throttle.

 

can anybody second that? maybe w/ a pic? its dark and I need to look at this tomorrow morning to see what to do. But if anybody has a pic, post it so I know what im looking at tomorrow - i didnt see any spot ...but i guess i overlooked it

 

I'll take a picture of it tonight and hopefully the flash will expose the spot haha. There should be a little gold port attached to your throttle body that should have a hose on it to that thing your're holding. I'll snap a shot whenI get off of work.

 

thanks please do so - thanks

 

i dont think thats a hose port, i belive thats what its suppose to mount with!

 

Umm id have to double check on my car but it looks like they may have put the hose from the tb on the piece that its supposed to mount with rather than the opening of the valve. take off the hose going to the tb and look in there and see if its actually a opening going into the valve or not.

 

Take it back and make them fix their mistake so they don't make it again on someone else's car. Didn't a dealer put this in?

 

I just looked at the factory service manual and confirmed - the line from your tb is going to the wrong piece of the valve - you basically have it connected to nothing - remove the tube and connect it to the other port directly on the bottom of the valve - d/c batt for 20 min and reconnect - everything should be good to go
