Are there any side effects to failing Secondary Air Pump? Anything to worry about other than pump?

Default besides the check engine light?

what's wrong with the pump? Full of water? If so, you probably have a bad combi-valve also.

Not a *huge* issue, but I'd still fix it.

Default I had a code pop up in VAG a couple of times in the last few months.

From what I've read, when these things fail, they tend to first throw codes once in a while and then finaly RIP. I just wanted to make sure that if my sec air pump is not functioning 100% properly, than it will not cause any serious damage to other components. I'll wait for it to fail completely before/if I replace it.
