CAI Rattle

Post by wicked1981 »

I just bought a CAI for my vibe from ptuning and its great sounds good feel the difference but i have a problem. When the car is in park its fine but when I put it in Drive (I guess the rpm's are higher on Drive than Park) the engine vibrates a little more and the cone (I think) starts to tap something. Its like a rattle. Im sure it is vibrating the problem is I dont know where it is touching. I cant put it in park and check because the engine vibration slows down and whatever is rattling stops. It only does it when in drive. DId this happen to any one? The other question isdoes it supposed do lay on top of the fog light connection? Or did i just position it wrong?

sounds like the cone filter is hitting the headlite or driving lite push it on a little farther and see if it goes away.
