It's now working without the GLI.

On a side note, I was driving over our newly finished bay bridge. Reminds me of the Wangan and Tokyo extreme racer the video game. Funny how there is an e46 and a white Prius in the pic.

Weird. My headunit did it randomly though - it wasn't a constant thing but common and annoying enough to hardwire the thing. Keep it in the glovebox at least!

Yea, I have it in my glovebox for the time being. The 30minutes I spent fiddling with it yesterday didn't turn off the AUX so :shrug

It's not too bad of a difference. I will miss the S curves on the bridge during the late nights but I wont miss them during rush hour.

After reading into it more on the GT1, I see the lean codes are right after installing the AFE intake. Maybe the drive adaptations need to be reset?

I reset the codes and haven't driven it since. Hopefully that does the trick. I don't feel like finding the problem right now. lol

Minor Update:

Ran into the same codes again after driving again,

P0171/74.

I figured it had to be a vacumm leak since it just happened when I installed the AFE intake. I inspected the boot and low and behold, cracks! It actually is a big hole..

I'm thinking of ordering some silicon intake boots so I don't have to see this again. Looks like in 2010, the lower boot was replaced but not the top one.

I think S54, ITB's, and CSL airbox will solve your issues permanently ;)

Bollocks dude!

At least it's the upper one and not the lower one that has to be replaced.

Speaking of silicone version, is it supposed to have a longer life? Who carries such an attractive alternative?

Giya,
Stett Perf makes one

http://www.shop.stettperformance.com...2&categoryId=4

http://www.shop.stettperformance.com...s/IMG_2378.jpg

its $155.00 and backordered. I emailed them to ask when they will have it back in stock. I need one before Nov 17th Trackday. I already ordered a new fuel filter and new OEM elbow. It's cheap enough to just install for the time being.

The silicon wont tear and crack the like the rubber one. You basically wouldn't have to replace that boot anymore.

I'm sure sourcing one of these must be a pain.. :innocent

But those Strut tower reinforcements look AWESOME.

Sounds like a worth-while investment if you're willing to wait a bit. How often do the OEM boots go? I've noticed my upper one is showing cracks at 90k but who knows how long ago that started.

Well I already ordered an OEM upper boot for the time being. If stett replies, I will order the silicon one.

They tend to go out pretty often. Especially with an aftermarket intake that isnt bolted down. My lower boot was replaced in 2010, I already see minor cracking already but no tears yet.a P0171/74 code is usually a vacuum leak in that area, DISA valve, intake boot or MAF.

Nah... they must have made at least a few hundred GTR race engines. There were only 10 street cars so those won't be easy to get, but why would you want the detuned version anyways

I found one for sale, but you'd have to part out the $500k race car it's installed in to get it. LOL

I've ordered G.A.S. DISA valve replacement with the fluorosilicone ring. I honestly don't even know if my DISA valves with the DME update I recieved for the DIP. Either way, my intake boots were out so it be easier to just do the DISA valve anyways.

I decided to finish up the disa replacement and put everything back together.

http://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/10/25/6uhubehe.jpg

While reinstalling the new boot and maf sensor into the intake, the little maf snap connector fell off in between the alternator and engine. :facepalm

I ended up doing a halfway alternator removal to get the piece back. What a night!

Apparently, it makes a difference if the car is auto vs manual. Not sure which one is harder. I'm talking about alternator removal.

Well there is one way to fix this...

On another note unrelated to the car, my moto x decided to try and OTA update. Unfortunately my root method removes recovery and forced it into a boot loop. I spent the rest of the night reverting my phone back to stock with fastboot and then doing the OTA. In the end I have no root and a silly update. Been a wonderful night!

Nice, haha. No more DISA funkiness, I hope.

Too bad about the MAF clip and the cantankerous MotoX eating your night. :(

Thanks Kalim. Found out I could've just wiped the user cache to delete the OTA update download and it would've stop bootlooping....

I drove the BMW today to work, but I noticed the DISA valve area, there is a louder vacuum? That doesn't seem to be good.. lol...

I ultimately blame Verizon. They are the worst carrier to have an android phone on.

Oh yeah. I forgot about that, too. They did make the update procedure somewhat safe. :P

I'm hoping that DISA vacuum noise is just in your head and not a real problem, haha.
