Re: Please HELP!! How to eliminate error code P0411? I can't take it anymore!!!! (JT911)

I'm interested as well....have the same problem...

 

find out what it is with a vag-com, fix problem, turn off CEL

seems pretty simple.
edit: just kidding, i didn't read your entire post.

 

Re: (ShadyUpInSmoke)

I know what it is. Fault code is P0411. Clearing it is not the issue! I want to know who to remedy/fix the problem so I won't see it anymore!

 

Re: (ShadyUpInSmoke)

that code generally means, small leak, cracked vac line, sticking secondary air valve, if you take it to the dealership they'll know what to look for. i see that code all the time, usually cracked secondary air line. just takes the right equipment to fix it

Re: (A2sHAVeddubber)

Thanks for your info. I want to try and fix it myself; money is a little tight right now. Need some detailed information like procedures, pictures, diagrams, etc.

 

P0411 is secondary air injection. Its the pump that attached to the lower intake manifold on the driver side right where it meets the upper intake manifold. There is a plastic line that goes from the pump to the back of the engine bay, where you will find a vacumn line that runs to a sensor to the left of the coolant and brake booster by the coil. There is another vacumn line on that sensor that ties into the brake booster vacumn line (ties into upper intake mani on driver side). Check both vacumn lines and also make sure the hard plastic line that goes from the pump to the rear is not cracked and still connected. Mine had come disconnected and I threw that same code for a while.
Hope that helps http://****************.com/smile/emthup.gif Feel free to PM or AIM me for more info.

 

Re: (vwtuning)

take off the front end and replace the vacuum lines.
i did that, and its all solved. now to fix the damn p0605....

 

Re: (b1m2x3)

There is a vaccuum line that runs underneath your intake manifold to the combi valve.This line, because of the heat, dry rots and cracks. If you have replaced all other vacuum lines and fuses, pump, relay check good it is probably that vac line. All other are easy to access except for that line and combi valve.

 

Re: (vwtuning)

Do you have or know where I can get some diagrams, pictures etc? They can be in either formats such as PDF, JPEG, etc.
