    Well I got this code last week, and since I'm still under warranty I figured I'd have the dealership take care of it so I don't have to pay for the parts. They checked it out while I was getting my airbag recall done and I have to go back next week for them to replace the canister/vent valve. If I were doing it myself I'd probably just buy the valve you listed but since they're paying I'll let them replace everything.

    Isn't the vent valve on top of the gas tank?

    This has ben a problem for years with GM vehicles. On most trucks you relocate the them or lengthen the vent side. Sorry I did not get this Todd. I just have been way too busy.

    Well I think Todd has had the problem fixed for awhile now, I brought this thread back from the dead because I just got the code last week.

    So which one should I use? I have a 2009 G8 GT and what I read I could still use both. One cost 31shipped and the other 140shipped.

    read the whole post. Look at the pics. The part I used is NOT either of those numbers. And it is NOT part of the tank or canister. The cheaper one was it for me.

    Though I normally do my own repairs, when mine had the problem I was still covered by the warranty so I just had the dealership take care of it. The part they ordered was 92223184, which I believe is the entire canister with the vent valve assembly, and it solved the problem. My car is a 2009.5 though so it's definitely after that VIN break.
