Do you have a divot in the CAI tube from the airbag sensor bracket?

If so then take it to your dealership and show them the divot and tell them about the missing spacer. I had to take it to my dealership twice...but they finally fixed it. I'm not sure if they obtained an additional spacer from AEM or not (i doubt it)...but the invoiced stated they added shims.

If you have the divot they can't jerk you around too much because there is an obvious interference issue.

I couldn't find evidence of a divet. However, I did notice that the air filter rubs against the plastic wheel well. I can't imagine that this would be good.

Has anyone else noticed this? Any fixes?

Thanks,
