air pump 850 1997

posted by  someone claiming to be Anton Zavriyev on  Wed Jan 3 02:42 CST 2001 [RELATED]

Good morning fellow brickers,

The check engine light on my car (1997 850, AT, 68.8K miles) went on during a recent trip to NH (lot of idling, temps in the single digits most of the time - if it matters). It looks like the air pump decided to quit and I should shell out over $450 in order to pass the emission inspection. Now, I have heard about AC condensors, AT transmissions, upper engine mounts and such, but this thing is new to me. Has anyone had this problem? Is there (by any chance) a recall on the air pump? (I guess, I am dreaming.....) Finally, is that something that I have to attack right away, or can I afford to wait for a few month and try to do it myself when it gets a bit warmer?

Anton.
