EVAP Emission Control System Pres Sensor Fault

[seanieboy81]

Hi Guys,

I have the following code in my computer:

Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) P0450
DTC Definition: EVAP Emission Control System Pres Sensor Fault

I took it to my local indy mercedes shop and they said it was the right fuel level sensor. Does this sensor also sense how much pressure is in the gas tank? I thought it only senesed how much gas is in the tank for the fuel gauge. Please let me know what you think.

Oh, by the way, the shop said that the pressure in my tank was at 58mbr and that is bad or something (or maybe it was -58mbr).

Thanks!

Is it ok to drive w/ this sensor not working? The local mercedes dealer cannot preform any service on my car until 11/29 due to recalls with the E and SL class.
