totally agree...so how could be the K&N?? Furthermone it is new not as if I need oiling to be done

Nowadays, good products depend on quality and control. If you go to some forums, there are complains that their brand new KNN filter clogged their MAF with too much oil and causes engine CEL on & off frequently. The best is to take out filter and put on newspaper and let it dip dry. I guess there is no such thing as 100% guarantee perfect nowadays.

Recently my latio have this CEL/MIL lighted up and the slow was like 1.5K. I switch off and on again couple of times and once the light is off, my slow RPM return back to normal around 750-800.
This happens on/off not frequent but it does happen.
Have went to AutoSaver and TC for a dianostic test but they seems cannot find the fault and claim it is the throttle body and the accelerator postion sensor. Ask why is this so, AS cannot give an answer whereas TC mentioned it might be the K&N filter I'm using.
Solution to this, change the throttle body plus the sensor and use back the original filter.
Any Bros/Sis here could advise where can I get another opinion? Autoaid or any workshop??
thanks in advance
Regards

hello bro_latio33 and spyder_696,
i got the same problem as you described as well, mine is 3.5yrs old latio 4AT,
all stock original parts no modifications.
1) When start to use vehicle at morning, ignition on, cranking sound is there
but then the CEL check engine light will turn on after a while, then engine
RPM drops to 700rpm. Stepping on the accelerator pedal the engine RPM
cannot go up. Change to gear D and step on accelerator pedal the car
move a bit only ,, no power ?
Normally is when ignition on, cranking, the engine would start at 1600RPM
before drop to 1200RPM and change gear to D drive drop to 900rpm step
on accelerator pedal and got power to drive.
Then re-try ignition on a few times 5 times before CEL goes off and the normal
engine RPM at 1000rpm.
2) Yesterday while starting to drive off vehicle after 5minutes the CEL went up
and sudden drop of engine rpm from 1300rpm to 700rpm, though i step on the
pedal still the engine RPM does not go up .. have to restart a few times
then is back to normal.
3) happens already quite often in a couple of months.
I suspect is the throttle body motor dirty or got stuck and cannot flip open ?
thus i took out the stock nissan air filter still red color means clean,
but i still clean a bit using degreaser, blow dry and under sun till dry
and put back.
Could you please update me if you have any findings ?
i brought to mechanic yesterday but he said the CEL is intermittent, he could
only check if the CEL light is on, then i tried a few times still no CEL .. :confused1:
Intermittent problem.
