Default 2IS code P0172

Anyone came across this code?
"P0172 system too rich bank 1"
Probably dirty intake filter?

Did you recently get a new intake?

I had that problem once and it was because when I installed the intake I didnt make sure the MAF sensor was 100% snug fit into the housing.

^ that!

Not sure why, but i had the same issue after an oil change with that oil. I even got horrible cam gear noise everytime i start the car.

I drained it after 1k miles and fill it back with regular Mobil 1 and the car ran fine..
