Apparently, this valve housing was a known issue and a TSB for 996 models several years ago. Of course, the part retails for around $500.

So...before I empty my wallet, is there any forum experience regarding this part? Any idea what exactly could fail in the housing that could cause the noise (rubber seal, etc.)? It looks like one of the two lines leads to the grommet opening in the fuel filler door, so my hunch is that the housing has failed in such a way that the associated valve is unable to properly seal this line.

Need For Speed thanks for all the info you provided us.

I have the same problem and was wandering if you resolved this problem and if so may you share the solution with us please.

Thanks
