P227900 and P045500 leaky leaks
Anyone had any experience resolving these leaky codes? Check engine light coming on and off randomly but the code will returns after clearing.
P227900
A leakage is identified in the
inlet air system
P045500
A great leakage in the
Evaporative Emission (EVAP)
control system was identified.
Troubleshooting completed so far:
Edit:
Already checked and replaced gas cap as an initial step. Issue persisted.
Visually inspected “all” hoses from inlet manifolds to throttle body and to purge canister valve. Everything looks connected. A few hoses were not fully inserted but nothing was disconnected that I know.
With the car on idle, after some inspecting I did notice that my purge canister valve was making a loud hissing noise. I believe it was actually a vacuum noise coming out of the top of the canister.
Does anyone know if the purge canister valve is suppose to be making a loud noise on idle? Is it stuck open?

All cleared then small leak in inlet returned
So the purge canister valve will run in order to create a vacuum and maintain a vacuum in the system I believe. Maybe extra air is getting in somehow from the air inlet system.
Well boys the leak codes have all cleared but returned after a few days.
It appears that removing and reinstalling air intake, locating tightening anything related to the air íntake resolved the issue temporarily.
There maybe a small hole in one of the PVCs or hoses. Anyone have any easy trick to locate it?
