Hello,

This is my first time posting on here, but I am familiar with the forum. I did plenty of searching to figure it out but have not came up with any results. I have a 2008 b7 s-line 2.0t auto, quattro pictured below. when i drive back from campus (30 minutes away) and park my car, there is a ticking noise, but almost like a sucking noise too. It is not coming from the exhaust, but i believe it has something to do with the evap system. I have recently replaced my fuel filter within the past 5k miles and the n75 valve in the past 2k miles. when driving, i am often confronted with a message reading "Close Fuel Tank Cap", and the last two times i filled up my tank it would stop the gas gun at the pump after so much gas had gone in. I probably needed to unclick and reclick the lever around 30 times to completely fill up my tank. During my search i learned that the gas gun at the pump stops when pressure builds up, and i can audibly hear air trying to rush out, so at that point i would take the nozzle out of the tank and let it depressurize.

Anyways, i do have a vag-com. I have not seen anything pertaining towards this, but I do not know if there are any measuring blocks that i can open up to further my search.


Thank you in advanced,
Kyle

I can't help you, but I'm really confused by your custom grill but stock suspension. Did you do the grill yourself?

clogged vent filter in the filler neck? or probably your car trying to tell you to lower it.

Sorry guys, that is next on the list. Any recommendations on a a set of coilovers that can tolerate Wisconsin's salty roads during the winter? I did make the gill myself, the donor grill is from an RS6 and cut that to fit my S-line grill outer edge.

Slack, I will look to see if that is the case. Thank you

I wasn't hating on the wheel gap, just curious. Everyone has different priorities (and suspension isn't cheap).

I have nothing to add, but that grille looks great.

Thank you!

Billy, i definitely didn't take it in a negative way. I want that stance look, badly. Im just indecisive on which set i want to go with, and end up buying other parts because i get bored. Any recommendations of brand or anything for coilovers?

So I took off the canister and blew into the top hose and it just feels like it is pressurizing. There is no air coming out of either of ports. blew into the large port on bottom and nothing as well. Oh, and my canister did not have that filter attached to it. Lastly, I blew into the large hose that leads up to the filler neck, and that seems clogged as well.

So I am assuming that i will need a new charcoal canister, but how would i unclog that hose going up to the filler neck? remove the wheel liner?

Hahaha, I had to laugh at this one, while at work.

I really like that grill, though.
