CommentMy car doesn't wanna start after getting gas.
2012 Chevrolet Traverse 3.6L 182600 miles
My car doesn't want to start after putting gas in it. It acts like it wants to the first try after putting the gas cap on, but wont turn over. Then the second time trying, it starts for a couple seconds then dies. Then the third time trying, it'll start, but it runs rough.
*This is all on one time trying to start it*
Like not enough fuel is getting to the engine. I just changed the purge valve last year. The exhaust does have a leak/loose.

I've did that change almost yearly until I replaced the gas cap
Its the EVAP system. Replace EVAP solenoid near throttle body. Changed mine twice.

Tenía ese problema y le cambié la caja de fusibles y jamás volvió ese problema
For mine i had a damaged wheel hub ring that the speed sensor reads. Once replaced i was good. Also my battery connection (inside the truck bolt mounted to the wall) was corroded. Once cleaned fixed my issue

I finally solved the problem. It was in the pedal assembly. Thought it was the throttle body itself but it was a sensor in the pedal assembly.
CommentCuts out when accelerating
2012 Chevrolet Traverse Chevy Traverse v6 151000 miles
It cuts out when accelerating, especially around the time that it "changes gears" around 30-45 mph..it doesnt do it when you accelerate quickly (drive it hard) but when you accelerate slowly is when it does it. It will cut out for a few seconds then gain power/momentum again. We changed spark plugs and ignition coils, still doing it although not as bad as it had been. Could it be something related to throttle body or fuel pump/filter? Ive owned nissans all my life and the parts for this car are so much more expensive so really looking for some help please! Thanks!

CommentP0452 or Po452
2014 Chevrolet Traverse 202000 miles
My fixed says (fuel tank pressure sensor) low voltage. I've changed fuel pressure senor on top of fuel tank. Fuel vapor canister under the hood. Spent like 400 parts and labor and it still is reading that. Check engine light is on so my keyless start won't work. Idk what to do.

Most likely this is the o2 sensor needs to be replaced.
