Got code P0411 and P0174

Car seems to run fine, just the service engine light came on. The car has 69887 miles on it. What are some things I can look at? Checked all the intake rubber boots and hoses and they look good.

"If" they are related then I would check the secondary air injection system for leaks.

I dont know which would cause a CEL but if one was already there then I dont know if they are related. But when the CEL came on I had the codes read and that is what I saw.
I did mess with the 2ndary air pump and check it over pretty good. I had the codes reset and they have not returned YET. But I did hear the pump come on when I 1st stared car.

It is best to reset and see what reappears. Sometimes codes are stored but they dont trigger the light, then when the light is triggered you get additional unrelated codes.

Sorry, I meant it is good that you reset them and are waiting to see which ones come back.
