Loud noise coming from Evap system

[JDM_Rook]

I started noticing this loud mechanical noise coming from what i thought was the Evap canister. At first i thought it was an exhaust leak. Doesn't throw a check engine light, but this sound is new and I'm not sure what it is. Any help is appreciated.

that is the part making the noise, right?

Unplug it, the noise stops?

If yes, get a new one. It sounds like a valve/solenoid/relay, somethin like that. Whatever stops making the noise when unplugged, it sounds like you need that one.

I have the SAME EXACT noise.

The noise comes from underneath the car. (Driver's side near by rear left tire ~ the end of the side skirt.)

It occurs during the cold start, after a few minutes when the engine warms up.

One guy said it's the "Evaporation (something)".. But idk..

It doesn't give me any prob, nor an engine code, so it became a friend of mine for a looong time ('bout 8 years?) lol. "Put put put put..." Sounds cute eh?

It's normal on this car (I find) to have this issue. Mine does it and all the ones I have come in contact with do it. Again, no CEL, I don't touch it. The evap system can be very pesky to diagnose so until you need to, probably best not to compromise it.

sorta like he said

click...wait...click...wait...etc...

kinda norm, you may have a leak or pressure sensor off.
