A 2001 Corolla showed P0171. At idle, long-term correction was high; while driving it often fell, but at roughly 2200–2500 rpm both correction values rose sharply and the code set.
What the report actually shows
The owner supplied actual trim readings rather than only the fault code. The intermittent road-speed spike makes a single stationary idle snapshot insufficient.
Reported outcome
No confirmed repair appears in the cited thread.
What to take from this case
Record fuel trim with engine load, speed and temperature at the point the code appears. Compare idle and driving conditions before replacing an airflow or oxygen sensor.
