GM Genuine Parts 12690512 Vapor Canister Purge Valve

Easy to replace, perfect fit and function. This OEM part costs much less than at all of the parts stores I checked. I tested it before I installed it, the replacement took less than 10 minutes from start to finish on my 2016 GMC Acadia. Great product at a great price. Highly recommend !

Works perfectly on my 2016 chevy colorado. Super easy fix. Way less money than an auto parts place.

So far so AWESOME! *** FINALLY, no more check engine light - P0496 *** Part is correct to my 2016 Chevy Colorado. The feel and look are what matches the GM parts catalog and it feels like it's better quality than the original one I took off. Commonly this code is a simple leaky gas cap - but replacing that didn't help. Starting the truck (especially after refilling fuel) got more difficult, it got stuck in the starting position. I had a SIGNIFICANT reduction in fuel economy too. I wasn't sure if my error code was due to an actual charcoal canister or this. This was inexpensive (1/5th the cost) compared to the other part, so I decided to take a chance on this part first. Installation wasn't difficult (and I'm certainly no mechanic). This part, a 10mm & 8mm (to remove the air box for better access) socket, a pair of pliers to pinch hose clamps, and about 30min of your time is all you'll need! Unclip an electrical connector, a little hose, and start cranking (not too much room to get much turn each time so be patient). Align the new part bolt and crank it back tight again, connect any removed hose and electrical connector... voila! Reset the code and drive it around... my bet is you'll be just as pleased as I am!

Super easy to install and fixed everything. When my 2013 GMC Acadia threw an engine code, you could tell something was VERY wrong - the engine ran very rough, would stall at stop lights and stop signs, and the remote-start refused to even try cranking the engine. Oh, and filling it with gasoline was an adventure in frustration. Immediately after filling up, you'd have to give the car 5 to 10 minutes of "rest" before it would start. Fortunately, I have an OBD reader that said the recommend fix is to replace the Evap Canister Solenoid, whatever that is. I called around to a few shops and was dismayed that this small part would cost in excess of $300 to replace. So, my wife and I got on Amazon and found this solenoid for under $30. I looked up a YouTube video to see how hard it would be to replace and it looked really simple. So, we ordered this solenoid and gave it a shot. In less than 15 minutes my wife and I, rank amateurs, replaced the defective part. Immediately, the litany of problems described above was fixed and the car was running as good as new. In a few days of light to moderate driving, the engine computer cleared all the engine codes. I couldn't believe the night and day difference between the defective part and this new one. It cannot be understated. It was like having a brand-new engine!

This is an OEM item for my wife’s 2015 GMC Acadia. Car had a hard time starting after getting fuel and ended up being this purge valve. In this model vehicle it was super easy to install. Fit perfect and seems to work great. The car had been work perfect ever since. I’ve bought some not so great car parts from Amazon sellers but this is not one of them. Highly recommend this item.

Great price fits 👌

Quick delivery. OEM equipment. Fit was perfect for my 2016 Chevy Colorado. Good quality, I’m tired of aftermarket garbage. Actually cheaper than the aftermarket garbage.

Stick to OEM. This product is working well. Previous purg valve was cheaper cost and only lasted 9 months.
