P0171/po174 worries?
Every time my car gets scanned there are these 2 codes. Only happens one or twice every 100 miles.
Should I worry?
Thanks in advance for any info.
It's a sc car.

yes
the codes are for your oxygen sensors and they control fueling.especially because you are supercharged you need this looked at.lean it out and that will be the end of your engine.codes indicate you are running lean on both banks

That code is for it being too lean. For this to be set some portion of your tune has to be off by 25% or more.. do not go into boost like this.
It needs to be logged and either the tune corrected or the O2 sensors replaced if there is indeed a hardware problem
Are you in NC? I'm in Greensboro if you want me to look at it
