Default Not trying to kick a dead horse but, P0171 /1135

I have searched all over and it appears that there is no real consensus on the a definitive answer (here recently anyhow) on what the most common culprit would be for this combo,

The engine light is intermitent. Gas mileage is roughly 18-19mpg (AWD). Idle is rough but steady @ 1000rpm. I am thinking the rough vibration is caused by failing motor or tranny mount. Only issue I have with rpms it at 70-80mph and running 3000rpms . Yikes if ya ask me. I have athread about that and getting help but could a bad connection on the MAF cause such high rpms at higher speeds or the combination of the codes for that matter?

Happy Thanksgiving guys and I appriciate your help.

Running 3000 rpm at 75 mph is NORMAL! Don't worry about it!

LOL Hyper, You told me a while back that it was high. Not trying to call you out at all bro. As for the codes, I am going to clean MAF again, Clean the contacts and go from there.

Find the post. I'm pretty sure I didn't. I run 3200 rpm at 80mph.

EDIT: found it myself: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/6661498-post3.html
You said 4k rpms at 75mph... So obviously I would say that's high. Because 4k is high! LOL
In the post after your's I explain that I get 3200-3400 rpms at 80.

My complete and sincere apologies. I must have been.... Nevermind.


Lots of crap running thru my mind. I have enough check engine lights between my two vehicles that I could probably make a christmas display. Once again. I apologize.

Hahah. No worries!

For the P1135 you need to replace the Bank 1 Sensor 1 (this is behind the engine block). I would ignore the P0171 because it usually pops up with the A/F sensor.

Yes sir. FYI autoparts123.com are having a 20% off special. If you are a first time user I believe it is also an additional 10% off. I know they carry OEM parts. They are just hit and miss. I am not affiliated with them. just thought I would share the love.

Once again Hyper, You're the chit and I am a total Jack@ss

Hhaah, don't worry about it, it's all good!

Just make sure it's a Denso sensor.

I'll check out the website, I do need a new air filter and a cabin air filter. So might as well buy from there.

BTW: Happy Thanksgiving!

What are the other codes? P0171 is more than likely an O2 sensor.


Happy Thanksgiving to you too!

P0101, I'd take another look at the the MAF and make sure the diode and the inner wires are entirely clean. That's not a common code. Also look for any kind of leak beneath the MAF (o-ring). The MAF itself could be bad despite cleaning (it's happened to me before).

The other 2 codes are likely related to the P0101 occurring, because if it can't meter the air right...then the air/fuel ratio is off.
