Understanding Mercedes emission air injection pump failure: Causes and symptoms

If you own a car then you can find many types of problems your car would show if it has become too old or due to poor maintenance or other factors. Generally, the problems related to the performance and the handling are taken very seriously. But there is also another problem which is considered as serious and taken immediate action is the exhaust problems. The exhaust problems are not only harmful for the engine performance but also harmful for the environment. So, to control the exhaust, there are various components in the exhaust system. These components are various sensors, actuators and filters. One of such components is the emission air injection pump or the secondary air injection pump. In Mercedes it is found to be faulty in many cases. So here you will know about the causes and symptoms of the air injection pump failure in Mercedes.

The use of emission air injection pump in Mercedes.

You know that the exhaust system releases out the emission that is produced basically due to the combustion of the fuel with air. Those gasses from the combustion of the fuel have many types of toxic compounds and pollutants which are harmful for everyone. To avoid such toxic elements, the exhaust system uses an air pump and the catalytic converter. The need of the air pump is not continuous throughout the whole running process of the engine.

So, the pump operates when there is its need, basically during the engine start up there is a rich run. Initially the fuel is consumed in more rate for some time leading to rich running and the emissions would be more. The air injection pump then starts to work and injects the fresh air into the stream of the exhaust gasses to make it neutralize the emission. The fresh air flow by the air pump also makes the conversion of toxic compounds to less toxic compounds, for example- the carbon monoxide is converted to carbon dioxide. Not only during the engine start, but it works whenever the ECU sends it signals.

The air injection pump hence is a very essential component that makes the vehicle more ecofriendly and clear the emission test of the vehicle. Its malfunction would lead to various issues. The high toxic emissions are itself an obvious sign of a very badly maintained vehicle or lack of service.

What causes the emission air pump to fail in Mercedes?

Mercedes cars usually have very long-lasting components but they are also vulnerable to damage. So, like other mechanical components, the emission air pump can also malfunction. The malfunction of air pump is a result of some wrong in the engine or ECU or in the pump itself. So here are some top causes of the emission air pump fail in Mercedes.

Vacuum system problem

The vacuum system problems are the vacuum leakages and the blockages. The air flow cannot be possible and the pump would try hard to work. Soon the air pump stops working.

Corrosion due to water

Sometimes the water gets into some of the components of the exhaust system. The secondary air pump one of the components where it is easy for the water to enter and this leads to corrosion in the pump and it starts to fail.

Aging

The normal wear and tear can happen in the pump over time. Due to which it starts to fail. But this cause is very occasional.

Signs of malfunctioning secondary air pump

When the air pump starts to fail, then the car tries to make the user realize of the problem through the symptoms of the failing air pump. So, studying the signs would make the thing easier for you to identify the issue and get it diagnosed before something worse happens.

Idling erratically

The car would have an erratic idle if the emission air pump is failing. This occurs due to the response of the O2 sensor sent to the ECU about the emission. And therefore, the car would realize that the engine is having some faults and lead to idling.

Check engine light glows

The check engine light glowing is the sign of something wrong in the engine power. The signals sent by the O2 sensor because of the malfunction of the air pump make the check engine light to glow.

Emission test fails

Due to more emissions and no neutralization of the emission, the emission test would fail. This is one of the signs of faulty air pump.

Low performance

There would be very low performance of the car which is an indirect result of the faulty air pump. The engine may limit its power by monitoring the emissions.

Conclusion

It is not safe to drive with a failing secondary air pump. So, you have to get the whole air pump circuit components checked and ensure that there are no faulty parts. If the pump is worn, then you can replace it at Mercedes service centers.

@grbambi63's theory really made me peek into Daimler's 2018, 2019, and 2023 annual report to see the difference between Zetsche's management to Kallenius' management.

Zetsche's objective:

Kallenius had a similar objective on that too but I won't include it for today because we're not talking about the similarity but... the one thing Kallenius had that Zetsche didn't.

2019 & 2023's Kallenius-term annual report objectives:

Lower cost base. Reduction of (...) costs.

This isn't just some move that Kallenius added just because he loved saving some pennies but it might be due to the chaos that happens in his first year as a CEO. I am going to highlight two major events here.

1) Diesel Emission Scandal

In the beginning of 2018 (Zetsche's term), Daimler was accused of having shit devices on their control software for their US products but they denied this allegations. Then it was reported that the US authorities were investigating them for diesel emission cheating scandals.

In June 2019, Daimler had to recall 60,000 Mercedes diesel powered cars in Germany, the model affected is the Mercedes-Benz GLK 220 SUV produced between 2012 and 2015, the car is fitted with software aimed at distorting emissions tests. And during the same year, Daimler was fined 870 million euros in Germany for "negligent violation of supervisory duties" in relation to not fully complying with emissions regulations. In 2020, they had to pay $2.2B in settlement.

The scandal got serious actually as "The Daimler boss is also putting the german federal government in trouble. It has its back against the wall internationally because of the fraud committed by its flagship industry. US President Donald Trump has targeted Daimler in the trade dispute and threatened that he no longer wants to see Mercedes cars on Fifth Avenue in New York" source

This crisis ironically started at Zetsche's management but the peak of the case was handled during Kallenius' early stage of leadership 💀💀💀 (I FELT BAD FOR HIM NGL LMAOOO)

2) COVID 19

Do you think Kallenius' trials decrease after his first year? No. COVID-19 happens. They still profit as they are THEE Mercedes but sales were slow at one point. Kallenius and other executives had to take pay cuts due to COVID and even before, COVID he also had to struggle with Daimler's stocks dropping drastically while having to deal with the lawsuit and satisfying the investors. He also said this: (source)

Looking at how they have interesting differences as CEO. Kallenius is definitely all about cost efficient and maybe this was due to the crisis he felt in 2021 and as a preparation for Daimler's future ventures in focusing more about EQs

Update: Yeah this confirms that he had a pretty rough start to his management year in 2019 due to diesel scandal (source)

And bold of you to think that Zetsche retired from Mercedes with a bang. No he didn't. (source)

AND THE BEEF THICKENS as some board member reportedly are against his rise to be the chairman of the supervisory board (source)

Just a personal thought from me, but what if the reason Kallenius was pissed at LH in 2021 is caused by all these financial wrecks Mercedes are in during these years? They were hit again and again. To add that, Kallenius is very adamant on his cost efficient and cost reduction objectives after these hardships. And at that time, just after 2020, LH demands a raise. A raise from a company who is literally in the trenches fighting for a surplus and good result from all the legal battles they're in and COVID that caused the board members and employees to get paid cuts. Maybe this was what pissed Kallenius off? Because at that time, Mercedes wasn't doing so well and suddenly, LH asked for pay raise to a guy who is very set and clear about saving every pennies 😭😭 That must've pissed the hell out of him. I'm not saying Lewis is wrong but kinda 💀💀 to think that the butterfly effect from that moment of their contract negotiation in 2021 to what is happening rn in 2024 💀💀.

If that is true then Zetsche is the catalyst for the butterfly effect happening rn:

Zetsche diesel scandal>Him retiring>Kallenius' rise to position>Mercedes financial flopification due to dieselgate and covid>LH demanding more salary>Cost efficient and suffering Kallenius, with his hands full on Zetsche's mess, getting pissed at LH>LH and Mercedes fallout>Kallenius using George as a piece in the contract negotiation>Toto Wolff power decrease in Kallenius' era>George to Mercedes>Another contract negotiation problems>Ambassadorial promise getting yeetus deletus-ed>LH pissed>Ferrari move early>George steps forward as team leader

If this is real. If the butterfly effect is real, then it's crazy.

Hey Hazel,

During the F1 Austria GP weekend, it was occasionally mentioned that the paddock was being powered by solar panels and biofuels as a test of their low-carbon energy systems, or something like that. When I heard that, my first thought was to ask an expert (you) if you had heard anything about that and if the biofuel was something Actually Good or if this is more or less some PR fluff type thing.

Heya,

I actually meant to write about this but then got booked to cover the Spa 24h for Speedcafe and money had to take precedence.

So what they were trialling was a system that runs all the motorhomes and garages, so everything from tyre warmers and the teams’ data systems to, idk, emotional support gamer lights in the driver rooms or whatever. 

That’s more power than the circuit will have by being plugged into the national grid, so there’s a need for other power generation. Diesel generators have been the reliable form of choice for mobile events because they’re easy to transport, their fuel is easy to transport, they’re low maintenance and they run consistently. Festivals, sporting events, anything where you need impromptu power they’ve been the answer for decades.

The Austria trial was to replace that with a realistically portable system that F1 can take to tracks without their own on-site, sustainable solutions (some places, like Paul Ricard, already have solar installed) and to make sure it was feasible both in terms of delivering enough power and in being rigged/set up. 

Biofuel as a replacement for diesel is pretty good. Diesel is very, very dirty - even burned at low temperatures and steadily in generators. So replacing it with HVO100 (made from hydrogenated vegetable oil which can either be waste product or made from non-food-grade biomaterials) is a significant improvement. 

Mercedes recently switched to it in all their trucks for the European rounds and even just the 4% reduction in tailpipe emissions, compared to fossil diesel, will represent somewhere around 23.5 tons less carbon emitted. 

But on a full life-cycle of taking fossil fuels out of the ground, transporting, refining and transporting them again it’s a justifiable 70% reduction overall. Some people say 90 but I think it’s better to err towards the lower end - although given how filthy fossil fuel extraction is and the potential for methane emitted at-site, etc, the life cycle emissions are always much worse than you’d estimate anyway.

Solar, especially with a good battery setup, is of course another great use. Portable solar panels are very feasible, given what F1 is already lugging around (about 30 trucks per team...) so that’s valid.

It seems to have been a success, in the sense I didn’t hear about any random garage blackouts or issues. So hopefully that’s a good infrastructural development for future events.

Navigating Mercedes Car Exhaust Repairs for Optimal Performance

Within the intricate mechanisms of a Mercedes car lies an often overlooked yet crucial component: the exhaust system. Despite its resilience, the exhaust system demands attention and timely repair to ensure optimal performance and safety on the road. Understanding the significance of this system and addressing any issues promptly is pivotal for Mercedes owners.

The Role of the Exhaust System

Located at the underside of the car, the exhaust system plays a pivotal role in eliminating harmful exhaust gases produced during the ignition process. These gases, byproducts of fuel and air combustion within the engine, contain toxic elements and unburned carbon particles. They pose significant environmental and health hazards if released directly.

Recognizing symptoms indicative of exhaust problems is crucial. Increased emissions, excessive noise, heightened fuel consumption, diminished performance, or failed emission tests signify underlying issues. Prompt attention is necessary to ensure safety and optimal vehicle performance.

Comprehensive Exhaust System Repairs

When addressing exhaust problems, a thorough inspection is crucial. Leaks, commonly found before the catalytic converter, often originate from damaged gaskets or the exhaust manifold. Smaller cracks or holes may be sealed, while larger ones necessitate component replacement. Damaged parts like the catalytic converter or muffler also require replacement to restore system functionality.

Professional Repairs for Enhanced Performance

Trusted professionals, especially those at authorized Mercedes service centers, conduct comprehensive repairs. Minor issues like clogs demand expert cleaning, while leaks and damage require meticulous replacement or repair of affected components. Welding and patching might suffice for smaller cracks, but larger ones necessitate component replacement.

Benefits of Exhaust System Repairs

The importance of timely repairs extends beyond performance enhancement. Efficient exhaust systems not only ensure optimal engine performance but also contribute to reduced emissions, environmental preservation, and compliance with emission standards.

Conclusion: Safeguarding Performance and Environment

Exhaust system repairs are fundamental in preserving Mercedes car performance and safety. Timely attention to exhaust issues guarantees not just smoother engine operation but also a safer environment for everyone. Entrusting these repairs to Mercedes service centers ensures precision and expertise tailored for these sophisticated vehicles.

Ensuring your Mercedes operates at its peak involves recognizing and addressing exhaust system issues promptly. By prioritizing regular checks and swift repairs, Mercedes owners safeguard not just the car's performance but also the well-being of the environment and fellow motorists. Trusting expert professionals ensures that every drive in your Mercedes remains a seamless and responsible experience on the road.

Let’s start with hatchbacks. There’s only one all new hatchback set for launch next year and it’s a big one. It’s the next gen Maruti Suzuki Swift. Shown in near production ready form at the Japan Mobility Show last month, the new Swift is not a big departure to the current car in its basic look.

However, the new car has a longer nose with a clamshell bonnet, a pair of freshly designed LED headlamps with L -shaped LED DRLs as well as a new grille finished in gloss black. There’s a character line that runs the length of the car and a detail of note at the sides is that the rear door handle has been moved to the conventional position at the door from the C pillar as on the current car.

Styling at the back is unmistakably Swift with new C -shaped LED elements on the tail lamps enhancing the look. Inside the Swift looks familiar with the dash design very similar to that of the Frans.

It also shares several bits with other Maruti’s like the freestanding infotainment system, the climate control switches and flat bottom steering wheel. Seat comfort as well as space remain quite similar to the current version as well.

The new Swift will debut in India with the new 1 .2 -litre 3 -cylinder engine in place of the current K -12 1 .2 -litre 4 -cylinder unit. Codename Z12, the new naturally aspirated engine will make about the same 90hp as the K -12 unit but torque is said to be improved which should help performance in turn.

Enhanced efficiency and reduced emissions are also promised. The engine will likely be offered with manual and AMD gearboxes. The model will be built on Suzuki’s heart tech platform as before but expect some enhancements to the build as was the case with the latest Gen Baleno.

The new Swift has already been spotted testing in India and is expected to go on sale in early 2024. Pricing will be in the range of 6 .5 to 9 .5 lakh rupees extra room.

Tata Altroz Update:

The Tata Altroz is due for an update and the car maker hinted at what’s to come with the Altroz racer displayed at AutoExpo 2023.

The updated Altroz will see a feature upgrade with the move to Tata’s new 10 .25 inch touchscreen and digital dials and a sunroof ventilated front seats and a wireless phone charger are also expected.

The safety suite will also be enhanced with six airbags. Engine options will include the current 1 .2 litre naturally aspirated petrol engine and 1 .5 litre diesel while the 1 .2 litre turbo petrol is likely to see power up by 10 hp to 120 hp.

There will also be the move to a 6 speed manual gearbox in place of the current 5 speed unit. Over to the new sedans headed our way.

8th Gen BMW 5 Series (Long Wheelbase):

The 8th gen BMW 5 series is out and the big news is that it’s coming to India in long wheelbase form that’ll help level the playing field with the Mercedes E -Class that’s sold in India in extended form.

In look the latest 5 is subtle as new BMWs go. The grille is the focal point up front and comes flanked by swept back headlamps. Surfacing is tight all around though the rear end doesn’t link to its predecessors.

Revving into 2024: Unveiling the Hottest New Cars – From Next Gen Swift to High-Tech BMWs and Citroen’s Unique C3X Sedan

Inside there’s the very best of new HBMWs. 12 .3 inch digital dials and a 14 .9 inch touchscreen lend the new 5 the requisite modernity and there’s 7 series like crystal look detailing for a rich look.

There’s a comprehensive ambient lighting suite as well. Space at the back will see a big jump up thanks to the move to a long wheelbase format. 2 .0L petrol and diesel engines with mild hybrid tech will be the mainstay of the range and 3 .0L petrol and diesels could be offered as well.

The 5 series’ electric sibling the i5 is also India bound and will be covered in more detail in our upcoming new EVs for 2024.

Citroen is readying its first sedan for India and in true French fashion it’ll be a unique take on the sedan.

Citroen C3X

Think of the model as a sedan with the ground clearance of an SUV. To be called the C3X, this high riding and rugged sedan will stand out amongst mid -sized sedan rivals like the Honda City, Hyundai Verna, Volkswagen Virtus and Skoda Slavia.

Powering Citroen C3X will be a 1.2-litre turbo petrol engine that generates 110 PS of max power and 190 Nm of peak torque. Both manual and automatic transmission options will be available. In comparison, most of the leading midsize sedans have larger capacity and more powerful turbo petrol engines. Strong hybrid option is also available with Honda City. Citroen could use the C3X name for its upcoming sedan, based on similar-styled C4X sold in Europe. Or, as revealed in trademark filings, C3 Fastlounge name can also be used.
