Hey man. Just pm'ed you. Make sure that the sensors are seated correctly. Unscrew both screws and screw each one in a little at a time until seated perfectly. Don't screw one screw in all the way and then the other all the way. If that makes sense.

LOL...spoke too soon
2 days later Check Engine Nightmare appeared. Same Code. After some online digging and my mechanic ideas I switched both MAF sensors from one side to another. Also, new filters r covered in thin layer of oil from manufacturer so possible sensor contamination. Used electric contacts cleaner to clean both. Make sure that rubber o rings r seated properly. Reassemble. 2 days of driving no check engine. Will keep an eye on it and update later. On a positive note the sound of turbos spooling is addictive |

Sorry to hear of these issues.
Think I will cancel my order here over in the UK. I have had no issues in 25,000 miles with the Dinan intake. Hope you get it sorted. |

Thanks for posting JohnG. I actually sent that to AFE to let them know people are hearing about this issue and going elsewhere.

I think this is a MAF sensors issue. Due to larger and open filters I think they cannot regulate correctly but maybe I am mistaken. Dont see any issue driving with the CEL for some time. Not a major issue. Car still drives and goes fast without any hiccups. |

Here is the response from AFE support today regarding my CEL
Hi Roman.....this is what we have found for this issue... This shouldn't be a problem. the ECU, vehicle's computer, is getting an input from the engine sensors that there is more air going by it that it is programmed for. The ECU sees this and thinks that there is a problem with the vehicle, so it turns on the Check Engine Light. When that comes on, we are expected to take the vehicle to the dealer to get the problem repaired. So, there should not be any drivability issues with your vehicle. What needs to happen is for the ECU to "Learn" about the intake kit. Once the ECU realizes that nothing bad is happening to the engine, because it is constantly monitoring all the sensors, it will turn the CEL off on its own. What I would like for you to is drive the vehicle for approx. 2 weeks and let’s see if the ECU has been educated on the intake kit. Nothing will happen to your vehicle because all you are introducing is more air into the engine. It should turn off the CEL after "X" amount of key starts and "X" number of miles driven. So do not reset the CEL, if you do, it will start the learning process all over again. |

Off topic. I've also driven it 2 1/2 hrs in the rain and no issues. Since then I've put on a filter sock just for extra precaution.

Now although they do make very valid points and I truly believe nothing will go wrong we have to remember these cars aren't cheap to own nor fix so I wouldn't take any chances. Idk about you guys but I with paying premium prices for a premium vehicle there's certain things I expect even when it comes to modding... I'm not rolling around in my car with a CEL on like I'm still back in my Maxima days which was very long ago...😂

No issues at all. Prob had it longer than anybody else but I do know the reason why j am not and everyone is
I ended changing my order to have the dry filters as the pro wet filters were on backorder and didn’t want to wait any longer So it has to do with the pro wet filters the system comes with My filters are white |
