What should I do if my air intake is making a noise?
With engine at idle, open the air intake filter box. Reach into the vehicle and turn the steering wheel right and left. If this initiates, stops, or affects the noise in any way you will need to check all bolts which secure the power steering pump. If none are loose you will need to replace the power steering pump.

The problem it gives you when it needs cleaning is an erratic idle speed and stalling and usually does not set a code unless they fail.
