0903 is related to the vent control valve of the EVAP canister. It means its either stuck open or closed, can't remember which.... but a usual suspect is that one of the hoses in the area is clogged. When I get home I'll reference my FSM and tell you the other possible causes.

Removing the vent control valve from the car and cleaning it up usually clears it up.
WD-40 is your friend. If it still doesn't work, then it needs to be replaced.

i did this back in september. it didnt affect drive quality/performance, but the CEL was on. in IL, if the CEL is on, u cant pass emmisions.

very simple to do. near the driverside rear tire is the evap box. its a big black box, about 1'length x 7-8in width. only a couple of bolts and 2 evap lines go in there. very simple, about a 10-20 min job depending on how rusted the bolts are. PM me w/ ur email and i'll email u the directions...i still got them on my computer. i had to get evap canister and valve, cost was around 100$
