Default NEED HELP>>>WILL PAY

Installed AEM intake in 2006 civic ex and now its been a few months and the engine light appears and disappears. Someone told me that i should retune it to the new intake. I brought it into the dealer just to see what they would say and they gave an explanationof something like to much air , fuel ratio.... I am not a mechanic nor have the knowledge to understand...if someone here that lives in GTA area Toronto,Ontario i will pay someone to retune my car with the new intake...or if anyone else has any suggestions.


p.s. i have checked all seals and the chip on the intake, it's fine.


your help is appreciated.

chip?
Check the seal on the o2 sensor
sometimes that can throw a CEL
That kind of sounds like what it is since it "appears and disappears"
