The EVAP Canister System is the system that purges the gas tank of most air in it, making it a vacuum and keeping the lines fairly void of anything but gas. Unfortunately, unless your going to be able to give all the codes from your check engine light andd remove the exhaust to get to the gas tank, this is not something you will be able to fix on your own or I can even nail down to a specific item that is messed up.

What does a code P0441 EVAP emission mean?

It means you have an Evap purge control leak in the EVAP system. Basically when you have gasoline in a car there are a lot of excess fumes, these fumes are routed through the EVAP system of the car, through a charcoal canister, and returned back to your gas tank as liquid fuel. A leaking charcoal canister, Evap Purge solenoid, PCV lines or PCV elbows can cause this. Also a leaking gas cap can cause this. I would recommend replacing the gas cap first. if that does not do it, check all the connections to the EVAP canister *located in the engine by the firewall*. If there are any leaks, change the elbows or lines. IF the problem still exists you most likely need a new charcoal canister or Canister purge valve solenoid.
