BMW Secondary Air Injection Pump - Genuine BMW 11727553056

Product Information

A Secondary Air Injection Pump is part of a vehicle’s emissions control system. Its main purpose is to inject fresh air into the exhaust stream during cold starts. This extra oxygen helps the catalytic converter heat up faster and burn off excess fuel, reducing harmful emissions before the engine reaches operating temperature. The pump is usually electric or belt-driven and works only for a short time after startup.

• Check Engine Light (CEL) illuminated, often with fault codes (such as P0410, P0411, or related to “secondary air system”).
• Rough idle or hesitation on cold starts due to improper air-fuel mixture before the catalytic converter stabilizes.
• Failed emissions test or increased exhaust smell, as the system cannot reduce pollutants effectively during startup.

About Genuine BMW

The original parts used by BMW to build your car are available as replacement parts under the “Genuine BMW” brand. When ordering a Genuine BMW part you are guaranteed to get the same part that you would pick up from your local dealerships part department. Genuine BMW parts have been built to BMW’s stringent standards and are the same quality of the original parts used to build your Ultimate Driving Machine.

You may not realize this, but the parts that make up your BMW are not necessarily manufactured by BMW. No cause for concern, as BMW designs the part, hires a manufacturer, and ensures its quality to you. In fact, many of these manufacturers have been making parts for BMW for decades. In our industry these manufacturers are called OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturers), and these are often brands you recognize, including Lemforder, ZF, Sachs, Bosch, Valeo, Zimmermann, Siemens VDO, Corteco, and more. Don’t be surprised to open that Genuine BMW parts box and find an OEM branded part inside, simply with the addition of a BMW logo.

Be sure to keep an eye out for OE tags on our product pages to quickly identify parts coming direct from OE manufacturers. That extra bit of insight could save you some serious money while shopping! Refer to our OE Academy for further information regarding the OE/OEM tags throughout the site.
