How to Replace EVAP Purge Valve Solenoid 07-14 Escalade P0496

In this video I will be replacing the Fuel Evap Purge Valve Solenoid on a 2008 Cadillac Escalade. This will also work on all GM trucks from 07-14 Code you will get will be P0455 and P0496.
If you have problems starting your car right after you fill up with gas, this valve will be the problem.

Very intuitive . and lots people said I have to replace the carbon canistor to eliminate the code, your case told me the other possibility.

[@michaelisrael991]

Same here, gonna do the canister this week.

[@LivinginMariettaGA]

Thank you! Excellent video. Did a great job of stopping to show & explain each step. Easy replacement on my 2010 Cadillac Escalade ESV.

[@GreeksGarage]

Thank you! I’m glad I could help. 👍🏼

[@jasonwilson1864]

I have an 06 that had the same problem. The set up is a little different but the same concept. The vidoe was very helpful. Thank you

[@GreeksGarage]

You’re welcome, glad I could help.

[@SPCBOE]

Thanks a lot. My 2007 Escalade wouldn’t immediately start whenever I put gas in it. This fixed the problem.

[@agresham1982]

Thanks. Took me less than 15 minutes to do on my 2012 Cadillac Escalade ESV.

[@BringBackMasculinity1987]

My father n law is replacing this on our 13 Yukon as we speak. Thx for the video

[@GreeksGarage]

Your welcome, I’m glad I could help. Thanks for watching 👍🏻

[@thomasdeloach5716]

This was great thank you

[@tinorenteria7831]

Awesome help!!!!!!!

[@johnmoustakas8090]

Very good video. Clear and concise. Thank you.

[@joe8schmoe]

I had a strong gas smell in the vehicle, but no codes. When cold, the truck also cranked longer than normal before firing up and running normally. Replacing this fixed the starting problem and also took care of most of the smell. The next day, it told me to tighten the gas cap, which I had done the previous day, so I replaced that as well.

[@brianandrew8033]

Thanks so much. Your video was perfect and helped me swap this part out in under 10 minutes. You rock.

[@GreeksGarage]

Thank you so much😊

Thanks 👍 very informative

[@johnvalyo9417]

Great video!! Thank you so much!!

And also the codes what you might get is a lean or rich code. As the purge valve is vented into the manifold. So the purge valve (theoretically) vents the fumes from the evap into the engine to burn. If your purge valve is bad it’s constantly sucking vacuum. So it will clean out all the fuel. It may throw a p0172 code for rich.. until it’s cleaned out all the fuel trapped in the evap. Then it will go p0174 and p0171 for lean. Because after it’s filtered all the fuel.. it will just suck air. So a bad PURGE valve can cause a lean OR rich code. And BEST to use a factory GM part.

[@ChevySS1968]

Thanks for this, I am having P0171 & P0174 together, so I was wondering if this purge valve just might be the culprit. Much appreciated!

[@zc3nt1]

Just want to mention, you called it a vent valve. That is totally separate from the purge valve. What you changed is the purge valve which is the (front door) the actual vent valve is the back door. It’s good to note that.

[@DevonBbrown]

I was wondering if anyone else noticed this...

[@Jerry-rs3re]

Thank you for this video! Helped a lot, perfect!

[@donovancamelin9100]

Thanks for the video bud!

[@redneckweekly]

Thanks for the how to. Great video!

[@CrispSugar]

I swear your video is so calming for me. The only thing is, I’m getting this code, my car starts but slow to accelerate. Any other possible reasons this is happening?

[@GreeksGarage]

Is the check engine light on? If so, I would see what codes are coming up. Thanks for watching.

[@tktk-om8cg]

Other than these smaller problems is escalade pretty reliable

[@Livingandcooking]

Yes they are

[@eaauto6182]

As long as you don’t have active fuel management

[@edwardgarcia9170]

What about that hose that goes towards the back. What if it’s not plugged in

[@aliciacarter6210]

More info where does the hose to this run

[@kevinhoupt6145]

Will this cause you having a hard time filling up gas?

[@eaauto6182]

Yea think so mine only goes to 3/4 tank and has starting issues after filling up

[@shortdoggcouncil1]

How can you tell its not the one at the tank.

[@ositopanda7312]

Is the same think for 2005 Cadillac scalade o not

[@turvonc]

Easy...thanks

[@michahoffman4148]

I have same truck and a p0304 code and I changed plugs and wires and coil packs and still can’t figure it out any suggestions ? Engine light flashes and stabilitrak and all that

How to change SU 1390 VPSA1 part PO446 on Cadilliac Esclade 2006 ESV

[@printflips1279]

Thank for video. I have this elm) Tell me please what app do you use?

[@GreeksGarage]

The app is EngineLink

[@mrshyboi1]

I changed my purge valve just new and did a quick drive around the block .. the check engine light turned off but now it looks like i have some white smoke coming out the exhaust

[@adog1275]

Did you ever figure out what the white smoke was coming from? My check engine light just started popping on for this code and I’m going to replace the purge valve this weekend just tryna see what other issues I may run into

[@phillipcastro2394]

​@@adog1275White smoke might indicate the pvc valve

[@KingTeddy1]

This worked for my 2008 Cadillac Escalade. But, I'd like to add DO NOT buy a cheap EVAP PURGE VALVE from Amazon you'll have more problems than its worth. Each one I bought from Amazon works but it starts ticking pretty loud. It did stop until I bought an OEM part

[@DEVILS_advocate05]

I have p0442 code. What is the fix suggestion

[@infernalmonolizer2539]

is it the same thing with a 2016 escalade ?

[@kennygarcia102]

My code was P0442 emissions small leak

[@bizzieone]

Is this the same fix for a p0449 code?

[@LeskoBrandon2x]

Will this video help me with a 2005? Also, will the check engine clear upon repair, or will I have to manually clear it? This was the only error read when I diagnosed it

[@GreeksGarage]

Q the 2005 is set up a little differently, but if you do a quick search on it, there are a few videos showing how to do it. It’s basically in the same location, just mounted vertically and held in with a bolt. Thank for watching.

[@LeskoBrandon2x]

Greeks Garage thank you!

[@johnmichael9354]

I’ve changed that part and the one near the gas tank and I still have the same code. What could it possibly is?

[@GreeksGarage]

I would check all the hoses to see if there are any cracks in it. Any little leak would cause the code to come on.

[@marioprado7066]

I have a problem with my Escalade at the first time every Day it will start perfectly but after that it has truble starting again... could this be the solution???

[@angelislas7819]

Did you ever figure what that was ? I’m having that issue now

[@phillipcastro2394]

​@@angelislas7819been trying to figure this same problem out mine will start fine then die out an wont start again till the morning im going to try the evap vavle maybe the fuel filter then the spark plugs dont know whats wrong with this thing

[@saintalvarado4436]

Part #?

[@GreeksGarage]

Saint Alvarado I got it off of Amazon. If you look up Evap vent solenoid for the year of your car on Amazon it should pop up.

[@drybonesmalone6974]

i really hate when you car guys dont show the symptoms in actions
