Symptoms of P2096

Trouble code P2096 (post catalyst fuel trim system too lean bank 1) is stored in the PCM. If your vehicle has the        2.0L GTDI engine and was built 9/1/2012 through 8/1/2013 do NOT replace the catalytic converter.

Disconnect and inspect the electrical connectors at the VVT oil control solenoids and the CMS. You’re looking for signs of motor oil. Use a clean paper towel to wipe the connectors. If you see oil contamination, remove and replace the VVT oil control solenoids, CMS and wiring harness.
