Codes P0171 & P0174 (Too lean bank 1 & Too lean bank 2)

Well, you seem to be doing all the right things ...but too lean on both banks could be the MAP is faulty and cleaning it didn't do the trick. Replace it..easy for me to say I know they are a hundred bucks..but maybe it can be tested before you put out that much for a 'maybe'

If there are no intake leaks, the next step is to replaced the air filter and clean the air flow meter. If the problem persist the front oxygen (O2) sensor may need to be replaced. --- Here's a link to Jaguar specific codes - there are some TSB links at the bottom. --- http://engine-codes.com/p0171_jaguar.html

Considering the repair history and mileage, and that it is a consistant hard code, it could be the O2 sensors are fouled and not responding quick enough. I worked on a 1981 Cadillac 6-8-4 engine where the check engine light would flicker while driving but wouldn't set codes. Most notable symptom was that while driving with the light flickering you could use the AC control head (used to control diagnostics) to force 4, 6, or 8 cylinder operation without going into diagnostic mode. I found out, several years later from a Cadillac Service Engineer, that the sluggish O2 sensor was putting the computer into a factory production line diagnostic test mode(negative voltage on the sensor input accessed by the worker from a green connector under the hood). Checking fuel pressure will give you an idea about the fuel filter or imminent failure of the fuel pump. Clogged fuel tank venting could also cause a reduced fuel pressure. A couple of fouled injectors could also be causing it to run lean. In 1984 I ran into a whole slew of Oldsmobiles that consistantly fouled injectors when using Texaco gas. I think a clogged air filter would give a rich condition.

Hi guys let me share you my experience in here with my jaguar x type 2009 ,what you call it limp mode or engine hesitation or engine stall on 3000 RPM, initially the problem was intermittent then became hard,and this was my troubleshooting on that 1- fault codes pulled and showing both the codes P0171 and P0174 both banks lean 2- unable to observe any air leak related to hoses between brake booster and inlet manifold and vacuum pump, i can hear hissing sound but unable to locate that while hoses in place and due to lack of proper tools 3- i start thinking to prepare my self to put all the possibilities to gather such as booster hose ,fuel filter,inlet manifold upper and lower gaskets and fuel injectors 4- starting with the booster hose , i removed the hose and gues what ?????? i found the check valve totally deteriorated and heavily leaking but i never had a brakes issue, same replaced thinking that the issue killed but unfortunately i did not erase the fault codes and after drive test no change the problem still persist here i need to tell you may be i did a mistake as i did not clear the fault codes 5- air inlet manifold removed and both upper and lower gaskets replaced , fuel injectors cleaned then after all of that the problem still persist after the test drive and even became more worse, i really got disappointed then it click to me to erase the fault codes ...... woooowoo ...... ya ... the problem cleared and the engine running and accelerate like wonderful. No fuel filter ,MAF sensor and O2 sensors not touched i think the problem solved once i did replace the brake booster hose but the problem persist as i did not clear the fault codes , i was looking for the check valve to show the valve status but unfortunately it looks i but in the Bin

There are two actuators (black & round) on the left side of the intake manifold that control the blending of short runner/long runner. The have round green gaskets under them that are known to leak and cause stumbling/rough idle, mixture problems, hissing, unmetered intake leakage. On the 2.5 the one closet to the rear can be changed in place by tilting it toward the front of the vehicle to remove and reinstall it. The 3.0 often requires removing the intake to replace it's gaskets for those actuators. I bought the gaskets for my 2.5 but have not yet needed to replace them. They are not expensive.

My 2000 XKR suddenly developed a rough idle. Engine codes showed too leak bank 1 and 2. Shots of throttle cleaner identified the area to the rear of the intake. I found a bolt missing on ERG valve. Problem solved.

I had the same issue. Driving me crazy because I was trying to sell my 2005 Jag X-Type AWD.... I looked under the hood and found that my air cleaner was not screwed down..... I screwed the air cleaner back down reset the codes and now no more issues.... I lost a sale yesterday because of that...

The air cleaner box may have not the problem as the light came back on and same codes. I started looking for an air leak and found one. See attached picture. The bushing that holds the vac tube in on the upper intake was slightly cracked. When sprayed with carb cleaner the engine would hesitate. I used high temp rv silicon and so far the light has stayed off.

I wanted to say thanks guys. I have a 2005 Jaguar X-type. I had the same faults P0171 and P0174 and changed out the O-Ring, Air filter, Fuel filter, cleaned the MAF sensor and still no change. I then decided to change out the brake booster hose and sure enough, it had a nice size whole in the check valve (middle part). I replaced it and I'm waiting to see if the code clears. I was told it should clear on its on after I drive it around a couple of miles. Computer should reset its self. If it doesn't how do I clear the fault? I'm thinking the whole was pretty big and I don't think the MAF sensor needs to be replaced.

Solved my lean codes by chance when I installed (and sealed up this massive leak) a new flex pipe. Nobody thinks about leaks AFTER the combustion, but it is still a leak BEFORE the sensor, and therefore it affects the readings and will also give faulty cat codes. So check your exhaust up to the cats for any leaks before you tear down the intake and good luck.

Cleaning the MAF sensor with carb cleaner probably isn't the best idea. My mechanic at the dealer says carb cleaner leaves a residue that will ruin the sensor "wires" as he calls them. To my surprise, a MAF sensor cleaner is readily available at good supply houses. Save the carb cleaner for cleaning throttle body intakes and the like.

What about the FUEL PRESSURE REGULATOR VALVE?

Boost pipe split underneath just fixed mine runs perfect

I have checked all of the above on my friends 2003 jaguar x type that had lean codes in both banks along with other codes. I ended up replacing the pcv valve because it was leaking badly and cleaning out the intake and injectors because they were full of oil. I thought this would solve the problem but the lean codes came back the next day. I rechecked for any leaks and bad sensors and tested the fuel pressure but I can find nothing. This to me all points towards bad o2 sensors or fuel injectors but from my experience the o2 sensor code would come before any other, however I don't have any codes for them.

Clogged injectors. Run Techron Injector Cleaner. Techron Fuel Injector Cleaner is designed for all carbureted or fuel injected spark ignition engines. Safe to use every 1,000 miles or as needed to keep fuel injectors clean. Suitable for use in two-stroke engines. Not recommended for diesel engines.

I think your all nuts
