Intake Problem--

Hey I'm pretty new to club Lexus but I have owned my 07 IS250 MT for about 6 months now. I put a no name intake on it and everything was fine for about the past 3 months but now my check engine/check VSC light keeps going on and off occasionally, anyone know if the intake is to blame for this. I really want to get a Injen intake hoping the quality might prevent that from happening. Anyone have the link to a good website i cant seem to find it on the Injen website.

I am going to bet it is a P0171 lean error you are getting.

Check to see if your filter is loosing? I remember one of the member had that issue. He brought the car to dealer and the tech told him that the intake filter was not tightened correctly. The problem was solved, after he tightened it.
