It is the charcoal vapor canister and/or the vent valve attached to it. I also had a P0449 code. I pulled the charcoal canister and it was filled with gas, probably from the previous owner over-filling the tank. If yours is filled with gas, then jump for joy that the internals of the canister didn't break and send charcoal pellets through the hoses going to the fuel tank If that happened, then you have to drop the fuel tank and blow out those lines or you'll still have the obstruction. Also, I pulled apart the vent valve and it was filled with dirt Replace both the vent valve and canister.

I Have A 07’ Yukon SLT. And I been Having battery drainage problems lately.. it will be working Fine than one minute I while get back in it to drive and it will be Dead! Get a jump, it comes back on and be fine for weeks than one day it just dies again? Not sure what’s wrong? But what I did find out is that the owner before me had Speakers hooked up and the loose Wirer's are still running under my seats and in my truck the other end of the wiRers that ran to the speaker is just thier live wirers with nothing hooked to it? Could that possibly be why the battery is seen tobe draining and if So what could I do to fix it, or either how could I disconnect the wirers from the battery running live under my seats??? 4 Answers

Even being in park the truck will still roll forward. In order to stop it I have to place a rock in front of the tire or place it in 4WD, like it sits right now.
