Carbon canister P0441
Trav Turbo:
Hi I've got a fault code P0441 I've replaced the N80 purge valve with a bosh one & still has the fault code. Only thing I can think of next is the Carbon canister, anyone know what else it could be?
Is it's best to get a new genuine Carbon canister or none genuine Carbon canister?
Cheers.

I'm literally in the same boat as you but haven't replaced anything yet, so I'll be following this closely. I do hear that most people just replace the canister with one of the cheap ones and they work fine.

Yes - the fix for this fault always seems to be whatever part you replace first it's the other one that has failed!
For me I first replaced my canister with one from a Hong Kong seller, it arrived with the VW PN ground off and felt very OEM... VW are big in China, I suspect my canister was domestic OEM.
But - the fault returned and it was the valve that was faulty, OEM one is made by Bosch - so just got a genuine Bosch valve and that fault code has not re-appeared since.

If only other areas of the engine were as tightly monitored for vacuum leaks as the sodding evap system!
It's always 50/50 carbon can or N80 valve. Some folk have to replace both, some get away with just one of them.
And less common will be the petrol cap or a split line.

Evap system is only monitored closely because it has an impact on emissions.
