i changed the mac valve out on the bode air door today hoping it would fix my problem. i did learn about how to adjust the opening and closing speed/rate on the air entrance door
on the mac valve there are two set screws. they are pilot screws to adjust the airflow. the top one as you look at the valve in the unit is the open and the bottom is the close. counterclockwise is faster and clockwise is slower. it takes a little playing with but i got it where i want it.
it is best to start with them most of the way clockwise so the door doesnt slam open and close if you put a new valve in.
then back them off a turn or two and check and repeat.
