Quest check engine light air valve

I'm having an issue with my 2015 Nissan Quest, gasoline engine. The check engine light keeps coming on. My mechanic mentioned an air valve. Could the air valve hose connection from the pump to the valve be defective? I'm seeing manifold pressure issues. Is my engine about to stall?

Possible. The check engine light illuminates for numerous reasons. Is the engine stalling? Any recent work on the vacuum hoses?

No stalling yet, but I am worried. No recent work on the vacuum hoses themselves. Is there a way to know if it's the hose before I spend a lot of money?

The symptoms point to a potential air valve issue, possibly caused by a defective hose. Replacing them is a common solution. Consider visiting a workshop for diagnosis. A smoke test will confirm leaks.

Thanks a lot for your help and advice! I took it to the shop. You were right, it was a defective hose connection from the pump to the valve. I had it replaced, and the check engine light is gone! Total cost was 175€, which isn't bad. I'm glad it wasn't worse.
