Default My civic doesn't have a fog horn why am I hearing one then from my engine?

Some times I hear this loud noise that sounds like a fog horn coming from my shortram air intake. It doesn't to it all the time but its loud enough to here from inside the car. I have no idea what is wrong and i have a cel that i haven't checked yet. I don't think they are related though.

the "fog horn" sound is common with generic intakes.

I have an AEM and it just started doing this. I had it on for a year with no problem.

when was the last time you cleaned the filter?

I used the recharge kit on it not to long ago. I was afraid that maybe i got some water in the engine through the filter. But if you get water in the engine wont that cause it to seize.

Yeah, you should take off the filter and check it out. If you had water in your engine you'd know it.
