Found at the front of the cylinder head, this auxiliary pump sends vacuum to the brake booster to provide assistance to your braking system. A failure could lead to harder pedal feel and increased travel, as well as a vacuum leak.
Most vehicles send engine vacuum from the intake manifold to the brake booster to provide power assistance to the braking system. However, due to your vehicle's engine having different vacuum characteristics, BMW decided to use an electronically operated auxiliary vacuum pump instead. Mounted to the front of the cylinder head, this part serves as the vacuum source and replaces the vacuum your brake booster would be receiving from the intake manifold.
An auxiliary vacuum pump failure could cause many symptoms, most commonly a harder-feeling brake pedal resulting in longer stopping distances. A failure could also result in a vacuum leak, triggering a check engine light and potentially causing the engine to stall and run poorly.
If your car exhibits any of the above symptoms, it may be time to replace your vacuum pump. Thankfully, Bremmen Parts offers this OE replacement that functions identically to the factory component.
Bremmen Parts is an OES supplier and is proud to offer parts that are very close to OEM quality in appearance and functionality.
