While car was idling, I removed oil cap and it was somewhat challenging to get off, felt quite a bit of vacuum. What do you guys think. Don't want to randomly put in new parts. Smoke test most efficient way to determine leak or issues? Very bummed out. Ger.  |
P0410=Secondary air injection system cyl. 1-3 signal implausible/implausible operating range/malfunction.
P1411= same thing on cyl. 4-6
I would start by checking to see if there is a related fuse that is blown.
Then find a wiring diagram to the SAI and check the wiring
Then test the SAI pump.
The AOS and other issues you mentioned are unrelated to the current codes.
How many miles on the car?
Has any recent work been done on it?
