Has anyone replaced the charcoal canister assembly on '05 corolla? I get error codes P043E, P043F, P2401, P2402, P2419...all EVAP related. The TSB says to replace the cannister. Is this fairly straight forward?

How many miles on the car?

The car has 86k miles on it, so out of warranty. The ECU was replace a couple years ago, so that's not the problem.

its pretty straight forward it should just pull up from the holder what i will say is to check hoses connect to it for cracks around them just replace them if you see any they should be only few dollars each i replaced my canister a few weeks back and the hoses to.just put a small mark on each hose so you know were it came off it should only take you about 10 to 15 minutes to do it

Where is the cannister anyway? I've never even looked for it. I've heard there's another type of cannister close to the gas tank. Is there a different one up front?

No, the charcoal canister is near the gas tank.
