001089 - EVAP Emission Control Sys: Incorrect Flow  I have been getting this fault since I changed the cambelt. I did a search and the only thing that came up was broken or loose pipe to carbon canister . 

I have not broken the pipe but it did seem a bit looser since having it apart to do the cambelt . I have managed to cable tie the pipe securely to the carbon canister but it still is throwing the fault but it did take longer.

Has anyone else had this fault after removing the carbon cannister ? I can't see it could be the n80 or n115 as there was no fault until after having it apart.

Any help appreciated.

Change the N80 valve, I had the same problem changed this and now its fine. Also the engine seems to be quieter now and MPG has increased ever so slightly.

Here's one on ebay:

£15 and it takes literally 5 minutes to do, its right at the front of the engine bay at the top.

Sounds like you have a leak. It will either be the canister itself, a faulty valve or leaky pipework

robmcclel:
It could just be a coincidence that it started since the cambelt change, id have a go and the n80 valve first as its the cheapest option to narrow down the problem. iirc the carbon canisters aren't cheapest so could potentially save you a fortune.  :happy2:

Thanks for the reply's lads, I will change the n80 first and see if that sorts it out. I can't see it can be the carbon canister as the only place it could leak is on the pipe with a o ring. I have put some hylamar on the o ring and secured the pipe with some cable ties.

I will report back if the n80 sorts it.
