Re: EVAP system code-I'm being taken for a ride
 

That makes some sense for the EVAP trouble code. How quickly the tank
vacuums and bleeds down depends on the amount of fuel in the tank, so if
it's a small leak (presuming it's an actual leak), it may bleed down
slowly enough with the tank empty for the computer not to recognize the
leak.

Thanks. I was just told by Pep Boys where I took the car in to have it
looked at that only a hyundai dealer can check these codes to see what the
actual problem is. Imagine my fright now. I'll be taking it in today to
the dealer to hear what they have to say. Hopefully I'll be able to take
it elsewhere for service to avoid the massive expense I'm fearing.

Re: EVAP system code-I'm being taken for a ride
 

It sounds to me like you may have already experienced the massive expense
by having a significant amount of work done that doesn't address the EVAP
problem. It doesn't do any good to take your car somewhere where they
cannot accurately diagnose the problem your car has. I personally don't
think the dealer is the only place that can diagnose an EVAP problem, but
it can be tricky to diagnose and does require special equipment.

Be sure to let the dealer know about the lamp going off when the tank is
empty, as well. Relax, authorize the diagnostic charge, and let them
check your car. If they're honest, they'll give you an estimate for the
work and let you know the consequences if you don't have the work done.
It's even possible that the repairs may not be that expensive. If you
want to shop around, find out specifically what needs to be done, and call
a few places. If they don't know what you're talking about, better to stay
at the dealer.

So the mechanics have decided that there's a problem with the fuil tank
pressure sensor. Is that a biggie to replace?

Thanks again for all your help!

Nope. Don't recall the cost of the part, but labor should be low.

Thanks. Just got the car back from the dealer. They went with what they
thought was a faulty valve on the cannister. No charge. Drove back to
work and car hesitated and ck engine lite came back on. Sigh. They're
looking at it Mon and this time they think they'll check the fuel pressure
sensor. Just an update.
