Default Please help with code!!!

Ok. I thought my code was cleared but I was wrong. It's P0441. They cleared it and it came back on after 4 days. Does anyone know what it could be??? I just want to know how bad I will have to bend over when I take it in? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

P0441 EVAP system fault incorrect flow detected but you already now that, possible problems are hose connection, intake leak, EVAP canister purge valve, im going for the purge valve giving false readings because of the time it takes the SEL to come back on, you might want to check the vacuum pipe for minor cracks

I've got the same problem with my 2002 A4 3.0. Audi issued a technical bulletin, Group 01, Number 04-11, on Nov. 15, 2004 that reads:

EVAP Purge Valve DTC P0441 (incorrect purge flow) may be triggered by the ECM if coolant temperature is below +25F (-4C) when the EVAP Purge Valve -N80- diagnostic check is performed by the ECM.

A new software program has been developed which will not run the diagnostic check of the EVAP Purge Valve -N80- until the coolant temperature reaches approx. 39F(4C).

I haven't had my car into the dealer to have the new software installed, so I don't know if this will correct my problem, or yours.

Is it free to have the new software installed? I have a feeling my whole bonus is going to go towards that damn CEL. It will really **** me off. [:@]
