    2010 cc with P2187 008583 bank 1 lean code

    08-18-2012 02:14 AM #1
    I just got a P2187 008583 bank 1 lean code. I checked all hoses and everything is ok. Light still comes on after like 1-2 minutes. Someone said that it could be my breather. While idling I took the Oil Fill cap off and it has a decent vacuum and almost stalled.

    Any thoughts on what it could be? I did spray carb cleaner all around the manifold and it did not make a difference

    You have an intake manifold leak or crack on the bank 1 side, it is simple as that. I suppose it is possible that you could have a bad or clogged injector, but not very likely. Since this is an idle code, it is likely to be very small, so you are going to have to really dig for the leak.

    I did do the intake manifold replacement 2 weeks and 1000 miles ago. It took that long for the light to come on.
    Which one is bank one? I have no clue. Any help would be appreciated. One thing i Noticed is if I take the oil fill cap off while running it has a lot of vacuum. It actually stumbles when I remove it. Dont know if that matters but just wanted to mention.

    Are you completely stock? I had the same CEL code and it was exhaust/O2 related
    Your signature line is really Cheesy!

    Yes it is 100% stock. Looked everywhere for intake leaks and there are none that I can find.

    Did you just swap out the 02 sensor?

    Update, This fault goes off from time to time. I the freezing weather it rarely if ever comes on. But came back on after things thaw. cant find a vacuum leak yet. But it does have a very rough surging idle when cold. otherwise the car seems to run fine. Been told that it could be the breather, when I remove oil cap when running it almost stalls.

    Im lost and dont want to pay the dealer runaround for $$$$$.

    Any ideas?
