VerifiedHi my name is ***** ***** I'm sorry your having this issue, The system may ask if you want a call but that is up to you, So it would help if I had the codes to tell which direction to go but I can tell you that the car has some kind of evap. leak and since you got a new cap from toyota I'd rule that out. With the age of the car I would think you need to get smoke tested to see where the leak is. could be the filler hose, or an evap hose going to the purge valve. Could be a sticking open vent valve or a list of things. I know it could be alittle higher to take it to the dealer but it seems like it would be the best idea. let me know if you need any thing else to help you out.
