A plurality of changing mechanisms change the manner in which intake air is supplied to an internal combustion engine. A control unit executes a cooperative control in which, based on the driving state of one of a variable vale lift mechanism and at least one of the other changing mechanisms other than the variable valve lift mechanism, the driving state of the other one of the variable valve lift mechanism and the at least one of the changing mechanisms is controlled. A determining unit determines whether the operational response of the changing mechanisms is decreased. A restricting unit restricts the cooperative control when the determining unit determines that the operational response of at least one of the changing mechanisms is decreased. Therefore, disadvantages caused by reduction in the operational response of the changing mechanisms are reduced.
