Gas cap NOISE? LOL
 
so today me and the ol' man start up his boxster after i changed the water pump (OMG what an annoying job LOL)
and after the car warmed up a bit, i we heard this whirling noise coming from the gas cap area?

could the gas cap be going bad? LOL

no CEL yet...so maybe the car was thirsty for some Chevron? :D

Bad seal on the cap - the original cap has been superceded by a new and improved.

Or, it could be the filler neck, issue with the early cars, can be repaired.

Cheers!

Gas Cap Noise
 
Did a new gas cap fix the problem? I just replaced my water pump (2001 Boxster S) and now have a similar noise.

Thx

Could that noise be air in the coolant lines to the rads? How did you burp the system?
