I just installed the K&N CAI and love everything about it! However, when its hot outside and I idle for a bit, there is a loud noise that comes out of the CAI.

Has anyone else had this issue? Is there a fix for it?

Any help in regards to this is greatly appreciated!

Thanks

Is it a Howling sound?
 






can you post a video/sound clip?
 






most likely youre idle air control valve (IAC)

I had the same problem, replaced it for $35 and hasn't made the noise since.
 






My 05 X with a cold air intake makes a whistling noise kind of like a turbocharger :D

back to topic...
I agree with raven1592...probably IAC
