Carbon canister seccion drawing needed


Recommended Posts

I need help from somebody that has the Shop Manual. I'm dealing with the howling noice -maybe due to carbon control valve <_< , I need a drawing of the carbon canister, how to access ...etc.

Your help would be greatly appreciated :help:

Do you mean the purge valve?

This thread shows it on a Carrera and the Boxster uses the same valve.

Thanks Loren; I was following an old post (http://www.renntech.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=6332). My noice comes from the right front, (I also get a CEl P0441 -not sure they are related).

I checked the purge valve by removing it an applying 12v, it opens nicely. :thumbup:

The post says... "When the car is doing it, undo the gas cap and stick your finger in the filler neck and activate the ORVR switch. If you hear a click and the howling stops, you probably need this valve." They called the valve: "the carbon control valve, part number 996.605.213.01."

I am a chemist so I use my imagination a lot to make up for my lack of mechanical knowledge. :unsure: Shouldn't the canister have a breathing valve that could malfunction?

Your link points also to the whell well as the place where the cannister is located. I'll dig in there to see what I find. :eek:
