Question S420 Rough Idle , check eng light

My S 420 started idling a little rough and occasionaly stalls at idle in gear check engine light is on when checked it indicated an air intake problem. The check engine light would go out for a while then go back on. I checked the air filters ,new, and added some injector cleaner which seemed to smooth it out alittle,but it still idles rough at times. Car accelerates and runs fine at speed.

Any help would greatly be appreciated thanks Charlie , Massapequa N.Y.
