Ready to race!
I am getting this error code, P2279 - Leak in Air Intake System.
I've checked & reassembled my air intake 4 times now and I still cannot get this error code to go away.
Any recommendations?
Here is what Ross-Tech says about it:
18711/P2279/008825 - Leak in Air Intake System
Possible Symptoms
-Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) active
Possible Causes
-Vacuum Leak
-Intake Manifold Runner Position out of Specification
-Faulty Positive Crankcase Ventilation (PCV) System or Heating Element (N79)
Possible Solutions
-Check Intake System for Leaks
-Check Intake Manifold Runner
-Check (PCV) System and / or Heating Element if applicable
Special Notes
-When found in the NAR 2.0T (BPY) check RVUTB: 01-09-03 or 2018919 for updated Crankcase Breather Valve
-If the breather valve is faulty, full engine vacuum is typically found when removing the oil cap at idle.
