There was a fuel valve replaced a few weeks ago, I'll have to mark on a pic what was replaced.

My idle control valve died so to keep my car on the road my mechanic swapped the whole throttle body from his own car on to mine, inc the regeneration valve.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

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.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi all, Over the past week or so I've noticed a kind of low pitched air leak sound from around the fuel filler location/bottom of windscreen on the RHS of the car. It happens when I turn the car off, a sort of air leak sound. I think I can hear it too when pulling away from a stop. Any ideas what it might be? Thanks

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Anyway to diagnose it?

POST 4Original post

Very often caused by the purge valve in the engine compartment getting sluggish or sticking open.

POST 5Original post

If it is this, it might be bad. Do you have problems filling up your tank to full? Does the pump handle keep shutting off? That may be a sign. Again, I'm no expert.

POST 6Original post

Quotes source post: 12338262

He's an expert. So, I'd go with that.

POST 7 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Purge valve, where is that located? There was a fuel valve replaced a few weeks ago, I'll have to mark on a pic what was replaced. I haven't noticed a problem filling it, I'll be filling it soon as I'm low on fuel so I'll take note.

POST 8Original post

I used the wrong term. Purge valve is on the charcoal canister. And it could be that also but not as common. http://www.pelicanparts.com/catalog/...pg4.htm#item11 I meant The Regeneration Valve from Throttle Body for Fuel Vapor System. Pelican part # 996 110 129 53 M100 http://www.pelicanparts.com/catalog/...pg4.htm#item11 It attaches to the left side of the throttle body, lives above the alternator. This article has some good info. And bad. It does partially explain the evaporative emissions system. http://www.pelicanparts.com/techarti...Vent_Valve.htm Read the comments.

POST 10Original post

What year is your car? That looks like the right place but that part looks odd? Look at this one, same? http://www.rmeuropean.com/search.asp...996-110-129-53 When the car is warmed up and running put a stethoscope on it and see if it is cycling. (or a screwdriver against it and your ear)

I'll take a pic of mine tomorrow, my car is a 98 3.4. It my be a slightly different spec as we don't have the SAI unit on cars here in Ireland.

POST 12Original post

Quotes source post: 12338375

What Frank refers to is this valve http://www.ecstuning.com/ES2224255/ Look a little higher above the alternator almost to the ceiling of the engine bay. What you circled in your photo is the vacuum changeover valve for the intake resonance flap.

POST 13Original post

It is not part of the SAL. Does Ireland have Fuel Vapor recovery requirements? That is what the regeneration valve is a part of. When it cycles it allows manifold vacuum to pull air through the charcoal canister thus purging trapped fuel vapor, bringing it back to the manifold so that it can be burned in the engine.

POST 14 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Just to close on this. My idle control valve died so to keep my car on the road my mechanic swapped the whole throttle body from his own car on to mine, inc the regeneration valve. Shortly after that I started to get the venting noise from the front of the car. Now that my own throttle body and recently replaced regeneration valve were refitted the noise has stopped completely
