P2189System Too Lean at Idle (Bank 2)
Fuel trim on bank 2 hits the lean limit only at idle, while trim returns to normal at higher load. This pattern strongly indicates a vacuum leak — leaks become a larger fraction of total airflow at idle and so dominate the trim, but disappear into background noise above idle.
