P0455 is the most common for the other codes ( large air leak detected ) and most common culprit is the air pipe going into the inlet manifold from the EVAP canisterpurge valve

excess air would cause a lean fuel/air mix hence the other codes

nop just check all the hoses are good and no cracks, change the EVAP canister purge valve as a last resort but I gave the data to check that out so do it

Okay..i was able to try it like 5 mins ago...the Oms show between 26-27..soo i'm assuming that is normal operation...soo what now???....I don't exactly see a leak in the hoses..becuz one hose goes close to the throttle body which is hidden....then the other one goes near the fender...another trick to check for leaks...

not an easy one unless you know the engine like I do, I recommend the underside of the inlet manifold ( air intake side )
