anyone had problems with gas cap not turning shut or gas pressure control selenoid staying open which results in gas smell?

However it may apply and/or serve to resolve your circumstance...

Hmmmm.........a 2005 with a 7.0L motor. Well GM, that covers......nothing.

The top of my gas cap just turns.....I needa new gas cap....now the question is: the gas cap is covered by the warranty?

I thought the 7.0 first came out in '06 in the ZO6.

Thanks to all, cap changed under warranty

I am on my 3rd gas cap already and this one just failed last weekend.

That's funny...you noticed that too?

I got a check gas cap warning years ago and I followed another forum members suggestion...he said to screw the gas cap on 'loosely.' You don't screw the cap down tight like you do in other cars. I followed his advice and I've never had another check gas cap warning.

If that doesn't work I would have the dealer check it out. I vaguely recall another potential venting issue that can occur as well.

Verily funny in that it is an actual fact. I met a gentleman at Road America this year that happened to own a black convertible, five made; 2 convertibles and 3 coupes, all black. It apparently was an early well kept pilot program engaged toward the development of the current Z06.

Wasn’t certain whether he was truthful so I decided to check the vin, the “E” was duly noted in sequence. Interesting what GM promotes covertly under our noses.
