    Po176? System bank lean? My CAI used to get that CEL whenever it was cold/rainy.

    I've got your exhaust up in town now.

    95% of the time it means you need a new front A/F sensor.

    The other 5% is usually:

    1. MAF is starting to go bad.
    2. Some combination of aftermarket parts causing a lean condition.
    3. A leak in the intake/induction system.
