Hi Guys,

I had my Cam Belt replaced this weekend after some serious problems with the car. I cleared all my old fault to which there was quite a few all stemming from the cam belt slipping and i have 17834 N80 Purge Valve Open Circuit as a fault on Vag Com.

Does this valve need changing sooner rather than later or can i wait a few weeks (til pay day)

Any help greatly recieved

Its the small black charcol cannister that ticks, below the washer bottle on drivers side of the engine bay, its something to do with the petrol fumes being sent back to the tank, not 100% sure tho (someone on here will know more about what it does)
