Yes, common issue with aftermarket locking gas caps, the cars don't like them. We've tried Stant and other brands, but about 8 out of ten throw the code right away, the rest do it after a few starts. Put a nice new Porsche gas cap on and the problem (after you clear the code) will not return.

We eventually gave up on locking gas caps; the car's EVAP system is too sensitive…………….
