Default Code P0455... Help!

heys guys,

so checked out the code, and checked my car... no leaks around the tank, new gas cap... What else can it be? I clear the code, but it comes on after a few hours of driving. Has anyone experienced this issue?

(2002 C2 Cabrio)

thanks-

There was a similar post on this Cel code not long ago... But I think the consensus was the missing gas cap or maybe you ran the car with the gas cap open? I believe Loren also recommended to check on the ventilation line that is attached to the Evap canister system, or ventilation line that is detached from the tank, or something related to the ventilation line in general. Let us know if you found the root cause to this Cel code. Good-luck...

P0455 Fuel Tank Ventilation System (Major Leak) - Below Lower Limit
Potential causes:
- Tank cap missing or o-ring bad or missing.
- Ventilation lines detached from EVAP canister.
- Ventilation line detached from tank.
- Ventilation lines detached from operating vent valve.
- Ventilation line detached from fuel tank vent valve.
- Break in ventilation lines.
