Hello i was driving the other day and notcied my ses light on. So i went ahead and hooked it up to a dtc trouble code reader and it popped up a powertrain code which is P2096 post catalyst trim lean bank 1. Not sure if this is caused my fuel cap not on right or i noticed that i have a slight crack in a tube that connects to the air filter/maf sensor to the intake part of the motor. So im not sure where to start... Thanks for you help

the reflash may be required for this problem.
without seeing the car myself it is difficult to be sure.
