DTC P2259 AIR Solenoid valve
 

I had my RX scanned after the engine warning light came on and received that code. The local mechanic who scanned it for me said I should take it to the dealer for clarification being that it could be a number of things.

The car runs fine with absolutely no change in performance, idle, MPG, etc since or before the light went on. The light has gone off and on a few times since it first lit (and is currently off), so it is not constantly lit. I can determine no similarities in action for when the light does come on, although it has lit twice during an acceleration. The other 3-4 times I have failed to notice the exact moment). The first time it went on was during a drive after the car had been sitting for two months while I was out of the country.

Any ideas before I take it to the dealer and get robbed :)? I have searched the archived threads but have come up empty.

Thanks loads.

download the service manual and read the service procedure for the codee

Is that for the air pump for emissions? I think so. It only works when the car is cold. So that is no big deal if its what I think it is.

Except at smaog time........

ya that air pump is for cold start emissons you wont have a performace loss or anything but u will fail state inspection if u have a dtc set
