P0441 Evap Emission Control System Incorrect Purge Flow

The Check Engine Light of my C220 has come on. She has done a little over 1,00,000 miles...
I took to AAP and got a diagnostic done. It read "P0441 Evaporative Emission Control System Incorrect Purge Flow".
Can anybody help in diagnosing wots causing it...??
I hv chkd the gas cap...it seems to be fine and shut tight...
Offlate I have been experiencing a couple of other problems...
The brakes tend to grab when coming to a stop...the engine also surges for a second...or two...the brakes act funny only at very low speeds or when coming to a stop....
The engine emanates a knocking sound when I rev up in park or neutral or accelerate in drive...for a very short time....I dont hear that sound when I'm normally cruising....The sound is more like that of a worn connecting or crankshaft bearing....But then if thats the case shouldn't it be constant...the engine runs smooth when cruising normally...even at higher speeds.....The sound comes for a very short time...
The transmission tends to hesitate a bit before changing gears..
Would adding a bottle of Trans-X help..??
