[QUOTE="Tourmax, post: 175795, member: 5304"] That evap code is a....problem.....on most modern cars. Even my mother's Nissan has had it at one time and it was a simple fix. It's usually a loose cap/seal or fuel in the evap return line from topping off the fuel tank. After that, it's most often a line or valve gone south somewhere in the system. It's always (in my experience) a simple fix. I get the frustration with something going "wrong" on a car you've owned for 4 days, but (speaking as someone else with BP issues) you almost have to not give a s**t about it. I know that's easier said than done (from personal experience) but allowing it to bother you is not helping it and only hurting you. I struggle with BP issues as well and am on several meds for it. As I mentioned, I know it's hard, but you just have to let it go. My temper and work injuries (seen and done too much that I'd rather not have memories of) would probably get the best of me too in your situ, but you really need to find a way to just walk away when something stresses you out. If it's saying to yourself "It's just a car" or "it's just money" or if you go for a long walk or even beat the crap out of a punching bag, you gotta get that stress out of your head/body. I lost two uncles to organ failure related to high BP and my old man struggled with it until he passed (Alzheimer's, not BP). Medication, meditation, mindfulness, exercise, ti-chi....what-the-heck-ever works. Find something that gets you out of your head when it seems like the world is out to get you. The world is not out to get us, it actually could care less about us. Things happen in the world and then it just moves on to the next thing, regardless of it's effects on us personally. It's our perception of events that gets us in the end. You have control of that, even if it feels like you don't right now. You've probably heard all this from your doc already though..... Good luck and here's hoping the evap code is just something stupid like a seal or some liquid fuel that found it;s way into the wrong line. [/QUOTE]
