  1. P2177 System Too Lean Off Idle (Bank 1) Medium

    The P2177 code means the bank 1 mixture is too lean with the engine above idle, at part load. The computer reached its correction limit in that specific condition, which helps a lot when you are hunting for the cause. Think vacuum leak, a dirty MAF sensor or low fuel pressure.
