How to fix P1457 EVAP Leak in Canister Area – 2002 Acura TL-S

This video will show you how to check all possible solutions to Check Engine Light (CEL) Code P1457. After driving about 150-200 miles, my CEL has not come back on! This job was extremely easy to do. With minimal guidance and while trying to film this video at the same time, I got this job done in an hour and a half.

Most gnarly ViceGips ever 😉

9:29 What's the size of the rusted screws?

ShaunMMX says:

Quick question about the mileage you stated on your car, I know the Second Gen TLs were pretty bad with their transmissions that came from the factory. Has yours had the redesign transmission put in? Just curious, considering getting myself a TL.

Steve Johnson says:

Engine light said I need this done. Got my knock sensor replaced then engine light went off.

Robert Weir says:

Since you ordered the canister and the vent solinoid, they sent you the o-ring to go with canister.

Carmelo Nerino says:

CAREFUL  with the lighter on a fuel canister that may be defective . if fully charged with fuel vapours a slight BOOM will occur.

David Hollfelder says:

You should be able to take the valve apart, clean up the rust where the white o-ring is .. coat of RTV, then fixed (probably).

David Hollfelder says:

Hope you used a jack stand, as I didn't see one.

John Woods says:

Basically a pretty good video EXCEPT after jacking up the car and removing the tire he never placed a jackstand or other means of supporting the car should the hydraulic jack fail. DANGEROUS!!

I started with the gas cap (2001 Honda Accord) like suggested, that
wasn't the culprit so I returned it for a refund. I bought the canister
set and shut off valve and that didn't solve the problem. BTW the parts
you have listed are the exact same part used on my Honda and the Acura
parts website is the cheapest place to find these parts. The culprit in
my case turned out to be the Purge Control Solenoid Valve P/N
36162-PAA-A02 and is found on the Honda Parts website. Note: This part
is for Honda only the part for the Acura requires a different P/N. The
location for this is on top of the engine between the valve cover and
firewall… Thanks! for the video,it got me going in the right direction
to solve the P1457 issue…

Did this solve the problem? I have the same car as you, and am getting this code and a p1298

Steve Torres says:

I have same problem, but with Honda Civic did it clear your codes?
