    Depends. Most of them are just forward of the driver's wheel, under the battery tray.

    Some models moved it to the right rear wheel area, which makes more sense to me.

    If you are having an issue with a leak, I suggest looking around the fuel filter area. There is a hose that tends to split.

          On the 98 XC the filter is on top of the gas tank, accessed through a hole in the floor. On 99-00 it's just above the rear axle accessed from under the car.

            I have a '98 XC70 with a CEL code of 0442. Gas cap has been replaced, but CEL came back. I opened the access panel on the floor of the back, but didn't see a filter. Also haven't located EVAP canister.

            Did smell gas once on a very rough road, but cannot see aleak anywhere underneath.

            Ideas?

            Thanks!

              As Klaus said the location of the evap varies. on a v70 98 I had it was located under the front bumper drivers side (no j hose). On s70 98 it was under the passenger side rear wheel and a j hose is used. Check a youtube video with this type.
