Manufacturer summary

Original wording in English

Certain 2016-2019 Sonata Hybrid (LF HEV) may experience check engine light illumination with DTC P0456 - Evaporative System (EVAP) - Very Small Leak stored. These conditions primarily occur in the California coastal areas that are subject to marine layer cloud cover. Salt particulate deposit can form inside the Natural Vacuum Leak Detection (NVLD) sensor which may cause intermittent operation prompting the DTC P0456 and check engine light. This bulletin provides the procedure to install a new Air Filter Kit with an updated filter to help prevent entry of the salt particulates. In addition, replace NVLD sensor if DTC P0456 found stored in the Engine Control Module (ECM).

Repeated filings are grouped only when make, bulletin number, publication date and complete summary agree. Original record numbers are retained. Older publications remain available, and an explicit later version is shown when established. Pre-1994 vehicle associations are separated from default results; an unspecified year does not mean all model years apply.
