What is the Air Pump all about?

Decades ago, exhaust systems were pretty simple. The spent gases vented from the engine through the exhaust manifold, into the exhaust pipe, and then out through a muffler. However, stricter environmental laws and regulations have significantly impacted today’s automotive exhaust systems. A number of new components, including your car’s air pump, must be in place to ensure that the engine emits as few harmful elements as possible. Also known as the smog pump, this secondary air injection system essentially pushes air into the exhaust system to help ensure that all unburned fuel is combusted. If the air pump is not working, excess emissions and pollutants will be released into the atmosphere.

Keep in mind:

Your air pump is electronic, and subject to a number of potential problems, including issues with wiring or shorts.
Your air pump is an important part of your emissions system and should not be removed (removing smog pumps is popular with “modders” looking to lighten their vehicle).
You need an operational smog pump to pass your emissions test.

How it's done:

The vehicle hood is raised and supported
The defective air pump is removed
The new air pump is installed
The air pump is tested for proper operation
The vehicle hood is closed and road tested for proper operation

Our recommendation:

Your car’s air pump is a vital part of your emissions system and helps reduce pollution from your engine. While there is no set life expectancy for these components, they do fail from time to time. If you suspect there’s a problem with your emissions system, or you’ve failed your emissions test, have your car diagnosed by one of our expert mechanics.

What common symptoms indicate you may need to replace the Air Pump?

Engine runs rough (due to insufficient pressure)
Check Engine light is on
Car experiences reduced power while accelerating

How important is this service?

Having an operational emissions system is important for many reasons, including reducing pollution and ensuring that your engine runs properly. Without an operating air pump the pressure in your exhaust will be too low, the engine will run poorly, and fuel efficiency will decrease. Have a faulty air pump replaced promptly.

Mercedes-Benz SLK230 L4-2.3L Turbo - Power steering fluid is leaking - Long Beach, California

I was happy with Kenneth’s diagnosis! It wasn’t what I thought (power steering pump replacement) and I saved $$$. I felt completely at ease with his repairs to replace a tensioner and pulley and in future, he will be my go to repairman.

Mercedes-Benz SLK230 L4-2.3L Turbo - Oil Change - Alameda, California

Luis gave me a call to let me know that he would be able to arrive early and to let me know that we could then start early or wait until the originally scheduled time, which was very accommodating of him. He was friendly, fast, and very transparent about he was doing and what other things he saw going on with the car. Great experience.

Mercedes-Benz SLK230 L4-2.3L Turbo - Pre-purchase Car Inspection - Los Angeles, California

Ralph was very efficient, professional and communicative. When I arrived he told me exactly what he was going to do in terms of the inspection and how long it would take. On the test drive, we had a chance to talk frankly about the car and any issues he found whilst doing the inspection. Overall it was a pleasant and painless experience. I would highly recommend Ralph. Thanks!
