Hi any help on this would be very much appreciated. I have a 2000 carrera 2 and after it's been running a while I get a buzzing sound- when i unscrew the fuel cap it goes away but when I rescrew it it comes back on??- ive been told it's the charcoal filter that needs replacing can anyone shed any light for me please?- very grateful
 
Easy to access once you remove the drivers front wheel liner.
 
I had much the same problem with mine, got to the point after a long run the car wouldn't start if I switched it off, my problem was the purge valve going to the inlet manifold. The buzzing was very loud, I checked a lot of things before getting to the bottom of it.

Remove it and test it, 12v to it and it should open right away, remove 12v and it should close.

Mines wasn't opening, gave it a clean with carb cleaner worked for a bit then I ended up replacing it.
