How do I do this? If problem comes up what needs to be repaired ? Is this a serious issue that I should stop driving car or whats the result if I keep driving

Fuel trims require the use of a Porsche specific scan tool (PST II, PIWIS, Durametric system) and will tell you the exact air/fuel rations for each bank. The one that comes up out of spec tells you what kind of issue (overly rich/overly lean) you have and where it is.
