What's this behind the passenger rear wheel. P0442 related
about a month ago, my check engine light came on. CEL read p0442 (EVAP leak (small)).
So today I was chasing it. If I'm not mistaken, it's the fuel canister right? (sorry about the noob question) If that hose is loose (the clean one), then that would be my problem. Any input would help!

Yup, that's part of the EVAP System for the emissions of your car. If it's loose, you should probably replace it since I don't think it's held on with anything except the friction between it and the nipple it fits over.

I would say it's loose. There was dirt in the crack between the nipple and the hose too. |

Yup, evap is like an air filter for you gas tank. If there's a leak, it's a bad thing. Replace the hose, or fix the leak.
But yeah, Fuel canister, charcoal canister, EVAP canister, tomato tomaaato. |

Thanks, I'm going to replace this hose and then clear the ECU. If it doesn't come up. Problem solved.

go to a junkyard and get replacement parts. Go to autozone and get a replacement hose. Go to dealership and get replacement hose. I listed your options from cheapest to most expensive.

You can remove the evap system and disable the CEL's too. That's another (unrecommended) options
