OBD code P0172, Forester 2002

May 21, 2008 1 Replies

Got the CEL with a P0172 code a week ago. "Fuel trim malfunction (A/F too rich)". Cleared and so far it hasn't come back. At this point, what is better:


  1. Not bother with anything until it comes back again?
  2. Start checking and investigating?

There doesn't seem to be anything wrong with the car. Maybe, just maybe, a little rough idling thouhg. Is it, by any chance, a common code that tends to be triggered by one particular component on Subarus?

Hi, Checked air filter? Until it becomes solid not much can be done.
