Thank you for your interest in Greddy Products. We apologize for the delayed response. Did you modify your air intake? If so, are you using a Cold Air Intake? If you are, there is your problem, your intake is sucking in rain water. Change back to stock or Short Ram Intake during rainy season. If this does not apply to you please emails or call us 949-588-8300.

HI Guys,

I have a Greddy Exhaust Evo II installed on my DC5, when it rain the engine starts to jerk and the car started to vibrate. Do you know how to fix this problem?

What do you mean CAI? You upgraded your intake, so it "flows" better, you upgraded your exhaust, now your intake breaths even better. Look at it this way, to breath properly, you need to be able to exhale as well.

Thanks for the advice, yes I have an injen CAI but why hasn’t this problem occurred when I only have the CAI?? Is it because the exhaust requires more suction?? Thanks guys,.

You didn't really do much to receive it.

As has been discussed several times, in several threads (And shown by Adrian @ Toda) the injen intake dose not get affected by water.

Do you think that maybe GReddy are blaming a differant modification so as to take the blame of there product.

The hydro shield is "water resistant", not water proof. If there is heavy rain, puddles etc, it wont keep all of the water off the filter.

if this doesnt work then im going change me intake.. i'll let you guys know if it work for me..

- have you checked if it happens in dry weather?
- have you checked your pod filter after driving in the wet to see if it is damp? and how damp it is?
- hydroshield is pretty useless in repelling water, it does for moisture and puney water droplets but if alot more comes onto it, it gets soaked.
- you checked all your sensors are plugged in?
