Default EVAP error? Anyone ever have a 16825 error code?

I threw a CEL this week and this is what was read:

18010 - Power supply Terminal 30: Voltage too Low P1602 - 35-10 --- Intermittent

16825 - EVAP Emission Control Sys: Incorrect Flow P0441 - 35-10 --- Intermittent

The power supply could be left over from when I swapped the battery last summer, but the EVAP has me confused. Shine cleared the error and it hasn't come back yet, so I'm not sure what to think.

Default Ok, ran a search... where is the "purge control valve"? Near the airbox?

Folks who have recorded a 16825 seem to have a bad purge valve. Anyone?

Default Cake and Pie....Piece of Cake...Easy as Pie...

Watched my trusted independent mech do the switch. Literally 5 minutes start to finish. Yes it is near the airbox. You have to undo a plug and the rubber weather resistant sleeve that goes around it. Someone with a Bentley (I know!!!! I NEED ONE!!!!) can tell you exactly. Its closer to the firewall but very easily accessible.

I just had mine replaced for a CEL. I was charged 138 for the part- is that about right(not really right, but the going rate...)

I usually have a good handle on what things cost- but not purge valves...
