Defunct charcoal cannister
Hi All,
My 2001 S-type has been behaving very well the last three months and having a splendid time driving her. Now the check engine light popped on and the charcoal cannister in the EVAP system has gone south, and, oddly enough, the dealership can't find a replacement. Does anyone have any suggestions on where to look? They will install a replacement I obtain - no warranty of course. Any assist would be greatly appreciated!

Mary,
What fault code are you getting? The typical problem is the canister housing cracks and sets a code for an EVAP system leak.
Some forum members have reported good results by repairing the housing with epoxy. Doesn't cost anything to try, but this will be negated if paying for labor.
FWIW...

Hello,
Here's what the tech said: "Performed fault test and found code P0455 gross evap leak. Performed smoke test and found leak at evap canister vent solenoid. Found solenoid to be stuck open. Part # needed XR854459". Replacement part is apparently no longer available, tho some have indicated a Ford part could be compatible.
Here we go a-hunting . . .

Hello all,
In the never ending story of the stuck open vent solenoid on the charcoal canister for the EVAP system, apparently the part # XR 85459 is for the purge solenoid, not the vent solenoid. The tech who usually services my car looked at some of the parts I found on line and indicated they were not the correct part. I have been to multiple parts sites and have not found a part number for the vent solenoid, nor have I found a schematic drawing that shows the two solenoids. The check engine light apparently cannot be turned off until the defective part is installed, so should I chance it and drive the car, I might not be notified of other engine issues that arise. It's killing me not to drive my Jag. Any help that any can offer would be most appreciated! Thank you!

See figure 03.1 here:

Although the two valves are physically located together, they are shown separately on the diagram. The purge valve is shown near the bottom center of that diagram. The other valve, near the upper right corner, is labeled "Evap Canister Close Valve" but I think that is your vent valve.

Thanks much gents! However, finding this little beastie is proving extremely difficult, especially since there are no part numbers listed. And the note at the bottom: "EVAP Canister Close Valve and FTP Sensor – OBD II vehicles only" - can someone provide clarity on this? Not sure what that means. And there are no Jaguar graveyards anywhere near my home.
Very frustrating, but all part of the deal. I still love her.

To find the part, eBay is your friend. A quick search for "Jaguar S-Type charcoal canister" showed several promising results:

You'll have to weed out the list by model and year, but I find a broader search is better than getting too specific. Look at the pics to make sure the external components are included. Also note some of the pics showed Jaguar part numbers, but I believe that is for the entire assembly. You may not be able to find the individual pieces separately.
