Appreciate the video! I did what you showed in the video and still having the same problem unfortunately.. quick question: does it matter how you run the vacuum hose? I see you ran yours down and under but i tan mine up and over (almost like an arch). Also does it matter which part of the pipe the hose is connected to? Mine is connected on the pipe that connects to the air flow box
Bravo!!! Can't believe I've already spent $300 bucks and countless hours replacing everything the OBD told me was wrong. Starting with the cat and 02 sensors, then it said throttle body, then pedal sensor. I was literally about to order a new ECM when your video popped up. Sealed the gap at the throttle body as you said and voila! I'm angry but greatful for your video. Cheers!!
I'm having the same issue with 08 Chevy Malibu. No crank or start. Will run after it gets a jump then dies off when service ESC, traction control light, abs and engine lock symbol is illuminated. My battery and alternator have recently been replaced. Any help?
"$40 worth of plastic piping" is the most vague thing I've ever heard for a serious problem. So I walk into Auto Zone and ask for "plastic piping"... This ain't aluminum siding by the foot
This mite not fix all problems but if it is dieing & you can restart then this is the problem if it dies & won't start then this won't help you check the throttle body or a sensor or a fuse if it just died and won't restart
Im having almost that same problem with my car when i press on the gas it does not accelerate it stalls first before accelerating almost been in multiple accidents because of that problem despite the car being taking good care of
Maaaaaaan thank you. And it looks 10x better !!Headed to autozone first thing in the morning for chromepipe hell I'll settle for flex to get this maf issue and idle fixed. Life saver thanks. AND it gives me an excuse to use this red vht and paint the valve covers. Hell yeah 👍🥇🙏
I have a 2009 Chevy Malibu 4cylinders and I took it to the dealership because it marked codes for knock sensor and ignition switch so I got that replaced not even 5 hrs pass by and it started to mark “eng power reduced “ again and o reilys ran a scan and it said the same things had to be replaced knock sensor and ignition switch and it also said the on the scanner “permanently “ so I’m not sure if they have to erase those codes from the computer of my car because those codes are stored or can I just get the “spectre performance air intake kit “ without having to go threw the whole erasing the codes from the computer problem
I need help my car has reduced engine i put in a new throttle body and it was fine a couple of days and it went back doing the same thing I have a p2135
@@royrogers1866 but it's a common problem; when I bought a 2009 chevy malibu back in 2017, the engine won't start because of the broken air intake hose for the throttle body. Once I ordered a replacement, it worked perfectly
@@untstudio5103 but if you watch the video it wasn't about starting it was about sensors going off and running rough and shutting down ( not starting )
@@untstudio5103 Hey my 09 Malibu is currently not starting. The day before I left work an immediately the dash said energy power reduced and loss of traction. Engine was violently shaking and couldn't drive pass 20mph. Made it home and now it wont start. Is that a similar issue you had with your malibu ?
This shit work for me .dont go to the dealership because the whole assembly cost about 390.00 and they don’t sell you just the grommet which is the problem that causes the engine power reduced and traction control . Advance got a kit like the above video .all you do is cut the long piece that goes to the mass air flow to Connect it
Followed your instructions and changed out the air intake. Car ran fine for a couple of days and then went back to behaving the same way as before. Thanks for nothing.
Dear Tom why are you being mean to this guy hes juat saying what helped him your issue might be worse than his its not his fault it didnt work for you.. Try some relearn procedures clean maf sensor to male sure your taking the parts out to clean let dry then return them to there destination
I have this same issue in a 2012 Malibu. While sitting still the "service esc" light will come on and the engine will start idling realllly rough. Its been doing this for months and I have been driving it, and now the engine idols rough all the time, but when it says "service ESC" it idols even rougher. I had the codes checked and I have all kinds of codes tripped from engine modules to cylinder 3 misfiring. Will this problem cause a cylinder to misfire?
& it dose not matter what you use for piping just as long as you go to throttle body to air filter and don't forget to plug the engine exhaust tube to that pipe
Do you recommemd doing this even if there are no codes and there's no loss of power with the cover on?
Thank you!!!
I’m going threw samething car would run and turn off I did all the sensor still giving me problems
i also have 2011 malibu LT but mine has secondary air port do your have it on your car i jave other hose comes out of back of airbox ??
The gasket was ripped on mine to and I used tape to stop the vacuum leak lol I might get this cold air intake as well if it happens again
Where can can I order the part?

It’s the fuse box check voltage on all fuses how about starting that way every time
No it's a air leak but thanks for your input
What is that part called ? The one you replaced the plastic cover with

Ducks are funny I love your videos you should make more
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Might be a stupid question but how do you take the cover off??
Omg I just want the name of the part lol
So what's the name of the part. ?????
What is the name ov this part and where do u buy it
@roy Rogers bro what were the lights on your dashboard before you did this ?
Sometimes the pool is not deep enough
Where did you find that part? In Arizona can't find it
Any part store go in & ask they should help
They have nothing like this online or in store been everywhere
It's in the exhaust section they are plastic pieces and you have to assemble it
Or you can buy the more expensive metal one
You should make more videos
You should make more videos. Please. 🙂

Hi everyone...I got all three parts, it seems long for my 2012 malibu. How do I hook up the vacuum hose? I'm stuck! Please help, thanks!
I figured it out, thanks will see 2moro if it worked for me.
What did you have to do?
Did it work for you?
omg thank you! Years of trial/error for me to figure this out! I will now try this......
Did this work for u
I found it for anyone still looking Spectre Performance Air Intake Kit Part # 8208 Line: SPT
I got it from O'Reillys
I need it thanks
I bought the 8208 kit and had to buy the 90degree elbow also for my 2011 malibu 2.4 ecotec waiting for the elbow.
The air intake hose tends to break, you just need a new air intake hose
Make your own video don't add to mine like you know something
