Already checked the codes and found that it meant too much air, so I've suspected a leak. I've checked the hoses, all seems okay. The hissing sound seems to be coming from here:



That's why I was thinking it may be that little valve on top, but I'll check. I'm going to take the engine cover off behind the seats to get a front-on look at the engine to see if I can see anything else.

The other thing is that I may be chasing a leak that doesn't exist. The sound could be normal, and it could be something else causing the codes and rough idle.

What could it be?
