Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

so ive been trying to diagnose this howling noise from the fuel cap area. It sounds like someone is blowing on top of a coke bottle. i just realized there is a tiny rubber hole inside the gas cap access panel on the right. it sucks air into it and its making a howling noise that is very loud and annoying. anyone know how to fix it? it stops when i plug my finger over the end... im pretty sure its a vent tube for something...

Pic? There is a rubber water drain hole, but that is at the bottom, not the right.
i will post a picture shortly
its right behind the door....
dont mind my dusty car, it clings to the black paint...
Update: i looked up the part # on the clip in the picture and it lead me to the vent line for the carbon canister... any ideas?
I don't have any ideas. When I get back to my car I'll try looking.
This doesn't match my '99. Maybe someone with a MkII?
Update: I removed the carbon control valve and smacked it around the old fashion way and the noise is gone for now....
BTW: the tube lead to the carbon control valve...
