Check all intake hoses for air leaks, there are a number of hoses including one or two under the air box which are difficult to see and to access but often split.
 
I had a sticking purge valve that caused this, it also flagged a lambda fault. Any codes?

Agreed it sounds like a vac leak on the intake.
