P0413 code

Anyone run into this code? Checked hoses and wiring and everything seems to be intact. I clear it and it pops right up again...

Can you tell if the SAI pump is running on cold start?

I had to replace the SAI valve in my 2016 a few months ago. Grabbed a used one and it's g2g now. It sits right under the vacuum pump on the drivers side of the motor.

Code with no light came and went for me. Sometimes i'd go a day or two after clearing it, other times it came on first cold start.

Pull the turbo outlet boost pipe if/when you install it. I tried to convince myself I could install it without. Spent a good hour fighting it before I gave in.

There's a gasket too. Cheap, like a buck or two. Grab that when you get the valve.

Code is back for me as of this past weekend.

Thankfully, it stayed away long enough to get the car inspected.

I can hear the pump (i think that's what it is) on cold start. I park in my garage at home, so it's pretty evident when it opens then closes. Opens a few seconds after startup and runs for 5-10 seconds then stops.

More investigating needed, i guess. New (used) pump was put in last month.

Odd that the OP and I have very similar mods (autotech intake, uni IC, CTS TIP, moosetuned is38, and meth) I wonder if one or a combination of them is causing the fault.

Which code? Pretty sure there's a valve that opens and closes when SAI pump kicks on that is controlled by ECU. The valve might be bad instead of the pump. Also, pretty sure it's supposed to run for more than 5-10 seconds.

Doesn't it run for how ever long it takes to preheat the catalytic converter sufficiently?

I'll pull the code again after my trip home from work.

I think it was the 0413 again, but i'll look.

I misworded above, i replaced the valve last month, not the pump. Combi valve, PN 06K131097K

I'm just assuming it's sai noise, as it sounds much like intake noise, but louder, kinda like putting your ear closer to an open element intake at idle. Definitely intake noise of some sort.

Edit: yup 0413 it's back again.

I’m having similar issues. Anyone figure it out yet? I was told by a trusted tech friend to replace the combo valve.

Where exactly is the combi valve located? Pics?

I’ve been having this issue for years. My tech redoes the wiring to the combi valve and fixes it for few months before I need to return

I want a damn block off plate for this valve. Take it out instead of replacing over and over.
