The lesson I learned, is anytime after to clearing the codes let the car idle for a while before driving it. I'm not sure what your timeline looks like, but this is something to consider.

I did DO that let it idle for a while several times, fuel trims specially LT were pretty good till I drove back and forth to work and the gym - I have also noticed at increase speed higher RPMs LTFT are as high as -17 on Bank 2 and bank 1 -15 ALWAYS banks around 2 % points difference.
I m thinking there may be a chance on the 02 sensors not reading right perhaps !! so swapping the upstreams sensors from bank1 to bank2 really curious if BANK 2 MAY STILL BE HIGHER OR NOT
AND also just got the evap purge valve - replacing bank 1 intake gaskets since that has to be removed anyways to get to the valve .
