Fluttering noise

msz31 · 05-31-2006, 11:05 PM

I had the same problem. I just re-oiled the K&N filter the other day and when I reinstalled it, I didn't hear the fluttering anymore. I think the seal around the base of the filter with the MAF is better now. I hand tightened the screw and it felt like it went on more snug this time.

try the blitz intake filter, its stainless steel and to clean it all you need to do is rinse through with water.... ive noticed that it sounds alot nicer compared to other intakes

That sound is normal with the stock by-pass valve. As far as damaging the AFM, I don't see how as all the intake is doing is allowing more air to be sucked in and the AFM is only metering the amount of air that enters inorder to let the ECU know how much fuel to add.
