I replaced the gas cap and got some love for about a month and then the code reappeared. Is it worth the chance at replacing the vent solinoid, it would appear so since the dealer charges $40.00 to do a diagnostic? Any ideas from someone with a similar experience? It also appears unlikley to be a broken vent hose because the car is not that old!

remove the plastic engine cover check electricial and vacuum lines going to it. this could be from gas tank to this valve including gas tank leaking..... this vehicle is not to old to have defective /worn hoses tubing as chaffing does occur. you will get dirty if you check out all the lines involved..
