You have an intake or exhaust don't you? Those codes are more prone to popping up with these mods. Hell, I've even seen them here and there. I just reset them and continue on. I've seen no change in fuel mileage or performance.

I have AFe intake stage 2 and Tanabe exhaust. I reset twice. Put in new MAF Sensor because of 1 year warranty.

I don't want to ignore because car run rough and lack of performance. Slow hesitate accelerations.

Is it the a/f ratio sensor. Meaning before cat or after? 02 sensors are after the cat and a/f sensors are before cat.
If it's an a/f sensor call me and I can give u details on how to attack it. I did mine months ago and still haven't posted a DIY but one day I'll do that or a video. It took me hours each side and now I know why they charge so much.

The one by the battery. I have seen some YouTube vdo. Does your car seem to run better, power after new a/f sensor? There are 4 O2 sensor 2 before cat and 2 after cat.

Funny cause it wasn't sluggish when the codes popped up. But it should run more efficiently once replaced.

If you change out the pass side, your batt will need to be taken out in doing so will reset once you reinstall it.

Does the driver side and passenger had the same A/F ratio sensor?
