P0449 Chevy Colorado, Gmc Canyon, H3

I found the Purge Valve on a 2006 chevy Colorado. its located under the alternator remove the front driver tire to access to it. My check engine light clear

Thanks man, a lot of people only show the vent solenoid in the back when code p0449 shows up. Glad you showed the purge valve swell. Looks like its gonna be a pain to get out

Was your vehicle consuming oil or were you just getting codes?

thanks for the vid, i got an 04 rado 3.5L lifted, gonna make it easy to change out, now just gotta go do it in the snow

You can use a Hummer H3 canister for around $25 and use it on the Colorado. All you have to do is use a section of hose and come clamps instead of that quick connector.

I had code p0455 on my Colorado 3.7L and it ended up being the purge valve

I have a 2006 Colorado which is displaying a code of PO 496. I'm also hearing like a rattling noise that seems to be coming from the area of where the alternator is. I was wondering if you also had similar noises coming from the area prior to replacing the canister?

Next time you have to buy a new one for the rear search for it for the h3 or just the part number on the bottom because it's a lot cheaper for some reason .
