Baydestrian Posted April 24, 2010 Report Share Posted April 24, 2010 Driving to work my Check Gas Cap message came on so when I got to work I checked it and sure enough it was loose. Tried to tighten it and stays loose now. Anybody else have this problem? Did a new cap fix the problem?

I had that happen on my grand am a few years ago, check engine light came on and i got it tested came up as a fuel system failure which my mechanic friend said is usually a defective cap I got a new cap and after a couple days it went away. Sometimes those sensors need an extra day or two to clear out.

Baydestrian Posted April 24, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 24, 2010 I probably did get the code, I haven't pulled them yet, I have a Cadillac so I can pull the codes through my dash and clear them. The gas cap is actually loose and wont' tighten, it clicks but its still loose. I guess I just have to buy a new one lol, yay I finally broke something. What sucked is that is happened when I was playing I-20 "Fightin in the Club" which isn't even a bass heavy song Quote 2015 Mazda 6 JVF Customz 4.0 Proto 15>Wolfram W4500 @ .5ohm 2 Sundown Neo 6.5 + 2 CT Meso Tweeters (Front) x Kicker KS6.5 (Rear)>JL Audio VX400/4i NSB-AMG35 (front) / 40ah Lithium Headway (Rear) built by Erni Audio & Electrical Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miakehl Posted April 24, 2010 Report Share Posted April 24, 2010 This is actually happening to me right now. The stock one went bad and now it's throwing codes on the new one, same thing, clicks but computer says it's loose. I don't think I bassed it to death but my car does shake like hell. I'm just going to ignore it until I can get one from the stealership.
