Mike makes a good point above about a tune - I will hang on to the AFE until spring when I install some tune (have not decided yet on which tune want to see results and if there is anything new by then) AFter putting on the tune I will put the AFE back on and see -
All the BMW experts agree that that one reason is the denser air in cold weather which exceeds flow limits using the AFE
Sorry to hear that, keep in mind only the JB4 will take care of that code.
