I have a 2008 Rogue and recently replaced the vapor canister purge valve due to the SES light code. I cleared the code and it has not returned, however there appears to be a vacuum noise coming from the vapor canister area. The noise appears when you accelerate. I checked the purge valve to ensure the hose was still connected and it was, is there other things I should verify? And how do I know if that canister may be faulty?

Thanks.

It may not be a faulty purge valve, but a leak in one of the hoses. The hole could be as small as a pin prick, and may be the source of the leak. You'd have to take the vehicle in and have the technicians use a smoke machine on it to try and detect the leak.
