Received check engine light and pulled code P0496 - evaporative emission system high purge flow. Replaced Purge Valve and erased codes (I could blow through it after removing, bad). Check engine light went out but code still comes back. What else could that code (P0496) be?

Thank you in advance!

Vehicle: 2013 Chevrolet Traverse 2WD LT 6 Cyl.

Hi there,

You could still have some issues with the vent control valve or the pressure sensor. Also, if you have an evap leak it can trigger this code. Here's some more info to help.
