Can't catch a break

Got a call from the dealer that my purge valve is in and today I get a new code: P0826 (shift up/down switch detection problem)

Bummer..!!

that does :cus: especially if they do not have a position sensor in stock. Seems to be a problem keeping parts in stock. If they are parts I am paying for I find my own. So far cheapcycleparts.com has come through...good luck..!! :banghead:

Hang around the forum long enough and you hear a lot about bad purge valves. For a part that just needs to open and close when nanny tells it to I find it hard to believe... More like the entire purge, and vapor collection system is faulty imo.

As many purge valves as dealers replace you'd think they'd keep a couple in stock.

Heading to to dealer today, we'll see how that goes.

Canister-ectomy will solve several problems, including the dreaded Purge Valve issue, forever.

Wouldn't that still trigger the check engine code p0443?

any warranty concerns with the surgery?
