I think I could help this also drove me crazy . there was a tsb for leaking intake gasket for 07 e63
there are new bolts and new gaskets to fix this . it toke me around 2h to do .I also found the rubber at the base of the Y pipe that goes from the 2 airboxes to the back was getting hard and leeting air by. this gasket is arund 20$ , the intake gasket and bolts were also cheap
good luck read this feel free to ask questions

thanks for the help Ertech, i screw up when i first pull the codes i erase them
i call my SA this morning and told her she said that the engine light needs to be ON in order to pull the codes again.
the P2187 has been coming on/off for the past 8 months but now here recently has stay on for a while.
the car in the morning always has a slight missfire/splur once it warm up it resolves.
the other code i forgot to tell you guys was
P0456-evaporative emission system leak detected. very small leak
so now i have to wait to this code pop up again and take back to dealer
thanks again boys
