is the air filter clean ? could be some obstruction before air filter box . check air intake pipe before air filter box.
You may need a new hose.

No obstruction into air filter intake , and yes need new hose again as i already replace ,and this hose lasted a month and got hole in hose again . So i was wondering if my IAC or MAS has anything to do with it, as the air intake hose collapses when at idle as i was inspecting with hood open in yard i also cleaned iac valve so might help just gonna order new hose again .
I am having the same problem right now. I am going on my fourth air intake boot and they have only been lasting about a week but I drive for Uber and use the car a lot. My mechanic seems to think my motor mounts are causing the hole because they need to be replaced but sice the boot is made to move I find that doubtful. I don't think it's going to work. We put a new air filter in already and one new motor mount.
I’m having the same problem and am on my 3rd new hose in 12 months. There is no obvious evidence of worn/broken motor mounts. I’m wondering if I keep buying cheap hoses? Maybe I need to find a better quality replacement part?
