You can also see a part of this hose on the first picture just above the wire loom.

I see it now, sorry, the words "section missing" didn't register for some reason...

Bazzle and cacecef seem to have the answer covered pretty well.

Bazzle, cacecef, Bruce R.,

Thanks a lot for advice!

Drove today to the dealership and picked up a plastic hose ($6 per meter, they gave it to me for free

). 5 minutes to replace the hose - simply cut it to the right length and plug it into the rubber connectors on both ends. The old hose got very brittle and was breaking easily. Will see tomorrow if the codes get cleared.

While taking off the cover saw a lot of oil build-up on a Camshaft Adjuster Magnet. Cleaned it to check if new oil appears.

It's interesting to see or hear of a dealer that takes care of their customers; they are not ALL thieves and hustlers. It's good to hear something nice about them once in a while....

It was the same line broken that caused my errors. I repaired the broken vacuum line with a repair part from my local auto parts store and that resolved my issue. Cost less than $1 USD.

Turns out, I got the very same scenario. Happened right after an oil change - had codes P0410 and P0105. Replaced the air check valve (which was all rusted out). Cleared the codes, got them back. Just today, got the P1519 code to boot, and I checked that very area, and it's split (but no section is missing). I'll go see if I can fix it with tubing or new hose.

I'm pretty sure that fixing a crack in the vacuum tube will fix it. Worked for me and for the other forum member (cocktailsfirst).

The easiest fix is to replace the whole section of the tube, which you can get from the dealer for almost nothing. It simply plugs into rubber sockets on both ends.

All codes resolved. Replaced the line with air line from Autozone. Took five minutes.
