Check Engine Light P0172 bank 1 system too rich?
 
Anyone have any answers

Please leave details about your car when you post. That code is usually linked to a loose vacuum line. Often my vacuum line that connects to my PCV has come loose.

I have a 98 s70 and i have that code pop up from time to time. i have replaced both o2 censers. It all started after i replaced my cat it was plugged up. and i have had to replace the flex pipe.

Model year and mileage could be useful to guess what is going on.
BTW, I am no mechanic nor car expert. I am just a new Volvo owner who is struggling to keep my car on the road. What I notice unusual from my experience is that your LTFT is negative while you get rich condition code.
If it was from vacuum leak, I would expect a lot higher LTFT, as ECU would trying to compensate un-metered air.

So, what I would rather guess is something like this

Well, I have to admit that this still does not make clear sense because your problem is under idling not under boosting.
In addition, if I have to use silicone sealer, I would use sensor-safe one.

Appreciate the feedback, mine is a base model, by accident I found a hose from the intake manifold that goes to the evap valve that was original and virtually fell apart while checking it. Replaced and so far no code :-)
