on the output side it will throw charcoal granules out like fine grit. only ever seen two do it. one had over 350,000 miles on it and the other had been in an accident on canister side which either damaged or shocked it.

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.

I had the computer checked for free at Autozone beforehand just to find out what the deal was, but they ran their check anyway. $14 in shop supplies. Total after tax came to $538.
