can someone chime in.
and offcourse bank 2 is drivers side Right?

Basically this means that an oxygen sensor in bank 2 detected a lean condition (too much oxygen in the exhaust).
Bank 2 is generally the side of the engine that doesn't have cylinder #1.
You will more than likely not notice any drivability problems, although there may be symptoms such as a lack of power, detonation (spark knock), and/or a hesitation/surge on acceleration.
The MAF (Mass Air Flow) Sensor is dirty or faulty.
There could be a vacume leak downstream of the MAF sensor.

dirty mass air was my first tought.
hopefully not a vacum leak.

P0153 is slow O2 sensor response bank 2. Do you have long tube headers? I believe there is a parameter in the tune for O2 sensor response time that can be adjusted for long tube headers since they move the O2 sensor farther from the exhaust port than the stock location. P0174 lean code usually means the MAF transfer function needs tweaked, but I guess it could be a dirty MAF sensor.
