I think it is located back there in the rear wheel well area behind the fender liner.

Question Code P0455 ?

New issue. Went to refuel my A-3, and after doing so it took about four times for the car to start. Also , went to Autozone and my A-3 got the P0455 code.
The definition shows EVAP system large leak. Probable cause:
1-faulty vent solenoid
2-faulty purge control solenoid
3-faulty fuel tank pressure sensor
The car still makes the thumping noise from the rear (not as much as a couple of weeks ago). The noise will appear while driving and at a complete stop.

Are the 1-2-3 parts that I can buy ? If so, are they easy to replace ?

I haven't had the pleasure of replacing or looking into the EVAP system (hopefully I never have to ) .. however I think this link should help you to understand how this works, how stuff if connected and if you feel comfortable fixing it yourself:
