2001 Audi A6 exhaust leak? EVAP problem?
 

Hey there I have a 2.8 Quattro A6 and I got it for pretty cheap but the check engine light is on and it comes up with the code P0441 which is the evap system and my car sounds like it has an exhaust leak but the guy I got the car from said it had to do with the purge valve what are your guy's thoughts? :confused::confused::confused:

I have a 2002 A6 with a P0442 and P0445, . Dealer had told me it was a leak around the fuel tank and would cost me $1000 to repair. This was after $200 diagnostic fees.I started researching it. And replace the gas cap and the canister purge valve from rockauto.com. It cost me $30 no more issues

Fuel Pump relay
 

I had codes on the evap system and a simple replacement of the fuel pump relay cured a lot. It shares the same circuit and is definitely a good place to start.
