  I checked the cap, it didn't seem to be loose.. I just reset the
computer, if the code comes back I'll take it to the shop I guess :)

Thanks for your advice,

For a large evap leak, the code is P0455. Had it twice, once before
taking
it to the dealer, and again, upon first start up after dealer visit
where
they claimed the gas cap was loose (even when I told them it wasn't,
their reply is: We
always write off the first P0455 occurrence as a loose gas cap)

Don't let the above happen to you, demand a smoke/ultra violet light
test
to find the leak...mine was a split hose under the cab, leading to the
canister in the engine bay.
