On my ride home from work today, all 4.2 miles, as I was backing into my driveway my CEL popped. I couldn't even believe it since its only just hit 3700 miles.

I started my tablet up and found this:

Sidenote: I got the tablet to use with Torque but when I found that the Dash Command app was only $9.99 on Google Play instead of $49.99 like in the App Store, I couldn't resist. Its a really fantastic app and I'm glad it was so much more reasonably priced.

Anyway, I gave the car a good half hour or so then I went and took a 15-20 min ride, the full gamut of conditions. Couldn't get it to pop again.

I reset the code and shut off the CEL, but its still listed as a Permanent Code when I read the diagnostics.

Google'd some but couldn't find anything for the Veloster specifically, any thoughts?

Someplace on the forum there are others who have had this and got the solenoid replaced.

Hmm I searched P0449 too, nothing came up. Ok thanks!

I guess I'll wait for it to pop again and bring it in. Think there is any cause for concern?
Bad day for CEL codes I guess, sorry to hear about yours, I hope you get it situated.

Good luck to you both...hope it isn't a VT habit.

Yea they'll get it fixed. Got a wonderful service department where I go. 2 younger mechanics, both with tuned cars.

That's awesome, I haven't had a chance to make any friends at the dealership yet, thankfully I haven't had to spend too much time there.

But I believe I found the thread you were referring to, over at ***** it was listed as PO449 instead of '0' (zero) on all the posts... Apparently its a TSB on a part for the evap leak, guess I'll have a chance to make a new tech friend sooner than later.
