Agree that problem is likely on non-pressure intake side. I had idle problem without codes before mile. I had a driver's side turbo inlet hose loose and there was a leak between my airbox and MAF pipe. Once these were sealed she idled like a champ.

Thanks guys. Sounds like I should check the easy and obvious before I go digging...

I don't have it all the time either, but most of the time...and always at the same RPM.

When I first heard the sound, I datalogged, found nothing. Changed plugs(was due anyway), coils, tried new MAF too, (have since put old one back in). I have always run stock airbox and paper filter and have 100% met injection only running between 1.3-1.4 bar. Was gonna do O2's, but couldn't find a reason to, as it runs good and the datalog don't show anything out sorts.
