EVOthis Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 Hmmm....What year/model is the vehicle? I've seen this code thrown a few times for a bad front A/F sensor ( not saying thats the problem here)...do you currently have any drivability problems...rough idle? lack of power? etc....

Cougar Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 (edited) Look for an air leak after the MAF sensor on the driver's side of the engine in the intake or exhaust area before the O2 sensor. Edited January 24, 2010 by Cougar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAYJAY Posted January 24, 2010 Author Share Posted January 24, 2010 2004 2.5 LGT NON TURBO 78,000 MILES ( first 2.5's with the zero emissions only sold in Boston and cali areas) no running problems idle ok power ok also . could it be a o2 sensor going bad ??

EVOthis Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 so this is a U5 car...it prob. has the 3 piece intake manifold and the triangle shaped exhaust ports in the heads....hmmm...as mentioned check for intake/vacuum leaks also check for exhaust leaks..If you have the means I would also check the IAT/MAF/CTS sensors...all vital engine sensors that could throw numerous codes..

Cougar Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 I suggest you check for an air leak in the exhaust on the bank 2 side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
