i just installed an AFE intake... after test driving my CES came on. i thought it was my MAF sensor so i clean it up with a Electrical cleaner spray. didnt solve the problem ....
i assess the whole intake ...the culprit was the intake air boot !!! is that the name? ( last tube that goes in the engine) there is small rubber tube that goes to another part of the engine it crack. anyone knows the part Number i cant find it on realoem.com so i can buy it from my dealer? jeez my warranty just expired too! so ihave to do it myself.
Sign and symptoms my rpm goes crazy during idle the first minute.

Re: intake problem
Not a good long term solution, but you could try wrapping it with black electrical tape as a short term fix while you are waiting for the new part to arrive.
