First i checked the mass airflow sensor and it wasnt all the way plugged in so I plugged it all the way in then did an ecu reset. Now when I start the car it revs up like normal for a about a second then boggs down quickly. I cant figure it out does anyone know whats wrong?

 

you messed up your idle, when you start the car play around with the gas peddle and get it to the dealer they will fix the idle, takes about 5-10 min. o and make sure you take the intake off and if they ask you anything tell them you have no idea.

 

It wont even start enough for me to play around with the gas. There has got to be another way.

 

there is a DIY for reseting the idle but i have never done it so i don't know what it exactly is maybe someone else on the bored can help you with that or maybe try a search.

 

Yeah the DIY is for adjusting the idle but I cant even get the car running for 3 seconds to adjust it.

 

did you try to put the stock back on...try that and see if that works....then after try puttin on the aem agian..that might work...or check the valve cover next to the plenum...did i spell that right...see if there is a air leak around there...but good luck with that...

 

Nope no leak. Im pretty sure it has something to do with me initialy starting the engine without the mas completely plugged in.

 

Sounds like a vacuum leak.

 

If it starts and immediately shuts down I'll bet my money you either have some that's blocking airflow in the intake (although very unlikely), or more probable: faulty MAF sensor. Do you have a recently installed aftermarket intake? If so, take it out, if not, take it to the dealer.

 

I have taken the MAF off several times, started the car without having it plugged in. It will throw the SES light. You can clear the computer with the pedal reset method. Or if you don't know how to do that, you can pull the negative battery terminal for 8-16 hrs. I would suggest a computer reset as step one.
Stealer as step never! with an aftermarket intake problem

 

Yes I just put in an AEM intake. I did do the pedal reset and still nothing!!!!!!!!! AHHHHH I cant even drive it to the dealer if I wanted to.

 

Go back to stock, and see what happens.

When you start the car, does it die if you step on the gas? Def a sign that the MAF sensor is dead

 

Yeah it dies right away no matter what I do. Crap I was hella careful with the maf.

 

Just go back to stock, and get infiniti road side assistance to take it to the dealer. They should fix it under warranty

 

FIggured it out I had the MAS pointing the wrong way. The aem photos were in black and white and blurry on top of me being a dumb ***. THanks guys for the help.
