Another AFe Intake CEL Problem?
Seems to me like the 5000 intakes they sold 4999 of them have problems? Now I have a $250 paper wieght. I think its kinda crappy that AFe will not offer a refund or any assistance to people that are having this problem with thier intakes?

Well Afe emailed me today and they are sending me out a new intake tube and they said that should take care of the problem. I hope so b/c I would hate to have a $250 paper weight......

Just my 2 cents about the AFE
If you followed my posts I had the same problem with my AFE CAI. I got the CEL and it would not go away. AFE was helpful, they sent me an updated intake tube. That did not work. They then sent me a "dry" filter. That didn't work either. I wound up going back to stock. My AFE sits in a box on a shelf in my garage. Maybe my truck is a Friday afternoon or Monday morning vehicle, but it DOES NOT like any kind of mods. The only mod I did not have trouble with was the Magnaflow 5" DPF back exhaust. I had bad experiences with AFE and now with a Flashpaq Tuner. I must be a die hard because I still have failed to learn my lesson. Thus the F-350 with 4700 miles goes back to the dealer for the second time. Primarily from mods. I absolutely love power and torque. It is addicting. But the aggrevation I am having is starting to wear thin. Perhaps I was too quick to experiment. Oh well my opinion only..There seem to be other members who have no problem with mods (and my name isn't Murphy) Other than the dislike to mods, I love my truck!!!!! CYA

Well here is another thing to consider......I was having the same problem that the both were having, I did get a new tube and I'm not sure if that is that answer.....I really don't know because my truck was down when I got the new tube. Once I turned off regen, the CEL did not and has not come on at all. I check to see if there are any codes every 2 weeks just to be safe and nothing. Now, I have heard that the tube design is the problem and the relocation of the MAF is throwing off the the computer. However, if I have the same intake that the two of you have....which I'm sure I do.....the problems you are having is directly related to regen mode, the DPF, and related sensors.....just another reason to get rid of regen and the DPF, plus more power, better sounding, lower EGTs and of course awesome fuel mileage....
