CEL code P2098... too lean?

Hi guys!

Good source you guys got here...

I have a 02 Carrera that had the CEL.

Code: P2098: Post CAT fuel trim bank 2, system too lean.

I can't find that code anywhere that's porsche related. Did a search and came back empty. But as a goood student I went ahead and cleaned my MAF (which looked brand new) but the CEL came again affter 3 days. The CEL is solid (not blinking). I'm planning on replacing the air filter (OEM) tomorrow. The car is stock with no mods and 82K miles.
Thanks for all your help and here's a pic of the car!

Usually indicates that your O2 sensor is on its way out.

I honestly donno. Wouldn't be a big deal in a regular car, won't damage anything, just makes it runs a bit richer and thus you get less mpg. Not sure about p-cars. At any rate, replacing an o2 sensor is a cheap and easy fix.
