Default CEL - Evap System Leak

Here is a segment of the auto-scan I performed with the VAG-COM:

Address 01: Engine Labels: None
Part No: 4D0 907 560 CM
Component: 4.2L V8/5V G 0001
Coding: 06753
Shop #: WSC 02314
****VIN NUMBER DELETED HERE****

1 Fault Found:
16839 - EVAP System: Large Leak Detected
P0455 - 35-00 - -
Readiness: 0000 0000


Any ideas where to start looking?

No smell of gas, and the fuel cap is tight. I cleared the CEL once and it reappeared after a few days.
