Diagnostic help BMW X3 E83 or BMW X5 equipped with M54 engine with secondary air fault codes P0492 P0491. These codes are often associated with a dislodged connecting vacuum hose on the secondary air injection line which I show in this video. If this vacuum line is not damaged or dislodged then it is best to check the secondary air pump along with the relay for proper function.
