P1177 Diagnostic Trouble Code (9 interpretations)
9 manufacturer-specific interpretations across 8 manufacturers in the TuningBot DTC database.
Ford
1 interpretation
Jaguar
1 interpretationThe control module detected a fault associated with the Rich mixture - long term fuel trim circuit or function; the stored code identifies the affected component rather than a single failure mode. This is the manufacturer-specific definition used by Jaguar.
Possible causes
- Fuel pressure
- blocked fuel line
- injector(s)
- other trouble code(s) stored
Kia
1 interpretationThe control module detected improper operation of the Electronic throttle system (ETS), throttle motor - circuit 2. This is the manufacturer-specific definition used by Kia.
Possible causes
- Wiring
- throttle motor
Land Rover
1 interpretationThe control module detected a fault associated with the Fuel trim (FT) rich mixture circuit or function; the stored code identifies the affected component rather than a single failure mode. This is the manufacturer-specific definition used by Land Rover.
Possible causes
- Fuel pressure
- injectors
- MAF sensor/ MAP sensor
- EVAP system
Mercedes-Benz
1 interpretationThe control module detected improper operation of the Engine oil sensor, quality/level/temperature. This is the manufacturer-specific definition used by Mercedes-Benz.
Possible causes
- Wiring
- engine oil sensor
MINI
1 interpretationThe control module detected that the O2 Sensor Slow Response Bank 2 responded more slowly than expected. This is the manufacturer-specific definition used by MINI.
VAG
2 interpretationsThe control module detected that the monitored Lambda correction after catalyst, Bank 2 - control value reached its permissible limit. This is the manufacturer-specific definition used by Audi.
Possible causes
- Intake leak
- HO2S
The control module detected that the monitored Bank2: O2 (Lambda) Correction Behind Catalyst: Control value reached its permissible limit. This is the manufacturer-specific definition used by Volkswagen. Volkswagen Group tools also report it as fault code 17585. Documented across Volkswagen Group applications (Audi, SEAT and Škoda included).
Possible causes
- Intake Air System leaking
- Oxygen Sensor(s) and/or Oxygen Sensor Control faulty
Recommended checks
- Check Intake Air System for Leaks (False Air)
- Check Oxygen Sensor(s) and/or Oxygen Sensor Control (all of them!)
Volvo
1 interpretationThe control module detected that the air-fuel mixture stayed leaner than the target despite full corrective control (System). This is the manufacturer-specific definition used by Volvo.
Possible causes
- Intake/exhaust leak
- MAF sensor
- MAP sensor
- fuel pressure low
- fuel pump (FP)
- injector(s)
