Mesh problem in a magnetic core and coil model

I built a structure contains a magnetic core and multi-turns of coils wounding it,
when it comes to mesh, it works perfectly at first,
but after I add an air(medium) block covering it, the mesh always failed.
I tried to mesh step by step, mesh the coil first, magnetic core second, it turns out successful.
When it comes to the air, I got an error 'Intersecting face elements', I don't know why.
If anyone knows how to solve it, that will be great.
Thanks

PS:The geometry was created by SolidWorks, and I imported into Comsol.

I met with the same question. I tried to mesh the geometry more precisely, which is proved to be helpless. Hope someone can solve the problem.

PS: My geometry was also created by Solidworks. The configuration of the project is same with the given example 'Modeling of a 3D Inductor'.
