inherit some problems

[suenoz]

ok this engine light was bugging me so i took the car to my mechanic to check it and this is the results:

p1491 egr lift sensor
p0401 egr insufficient flow
p1456 evap system leak
p1738 2nd clutch switch
p0740 torque converter

also add that some oil is dripping on my driveway but not alot according to my brother who i got the car from he had done a complete tuneup before giving it to me and oh yea he had the tranny rebuild 2 years prior and just recently drain the fluid so i have no idea where to start... thanks in advance

For the others, is the car driving/shifting abnormally?

p0740 is auto tranny sensor/solenoid problem I believe, and p1738...well, probably not good. Code explanations here:
