P0173 code on 2008 c300

Hi Benz lovers. I got a code P0173 on my 2008 c300 and it read fuel trim bank 2. What would be the possible cause and how could it be fixed?

yes those are the two codes. So it’s the MAF sensor. Guess it’s starting to fail so would have to change it......again.

If you are running rich, it's unlikely a vacuum leak or failing fuel pump.
