After getting my EVAP leak fixed, I now need to take care of the other code I had which said that I had a high battery temperature.

The battery that came with the car is a size too big. I was told that I need to get the proper size battery or I might have issues with the clamps wearing a hole in it. I am missing the battery cover AND the actual temperature sensor that plugs into the cover. I asked the parts department about it and they said they could order it for about $50. Anyone know where I can get one that is new or like new for less than $50?

 

how did you get the evap fixed

 

How much was it to fix your evap?

I got two codes saying I have two leaks.

I did what I would to try to find a leak myself. First think I checked was the gas cap. I looked at the cap itself for cracks and then at the gasket for breaks in the rubber. But after I could not see any breaks in the vaccum hoses, connectors, or gas cap, I was forced to take it to a dealership to get it smoke tested. Missouri is not a smog state so there was no "garage" that specializes in that. It costed me $101 for the test and parts and labor to get it fixed. Then they told me what I needed to fix the high battery temperature problem.

That is why I am looking for a battery cover and temperature sensor.
