There is some plastic air intake behind the driver seat on my pioneer that when idling is vibrates and makes noise when idling. If I hold it down it stops. Anyone done anything to stop this? Very annoying.

Mine does the same thing, seems like the cap fits loose, could prob put a piece of foam or rubber to make it mount more secure. I will probably put a snorkle on at some point so havent been real worried about it yet.

Spray a little outdoor insulation foam behind it. It's black and uv rays don't affect it. my intake system is embedded in the stuff. It keeps the dust out and holds every thing in place.

That was the worst place that Honda could've put the air filter inlet.

Me neither. In fact, I have thought that everything was very well fitted on mine. Maybe Honda "tweaked" a few items over the course of production. The idea of a snorkel intrigues me, but I hope to never need one.
