Low vacuum can cause a p0172. What is the reading on your MAP/MAF sensor? Have you had the scheduled valve adjustment? I've replaced almost everything that needed replacement. I'm at 247k miles. I replaced original EGR, EVAP purge valve, FTP sensor and charcoal canister, coils, spark plugs (due), the only thing I have not tackled are the valves. I even replaced the 3 injections on bank 1 and ST and LT fuel trims on bank 1 read about the same, rulling out a leaking injector. Just fyi before you start replacing parts and it's low mileage. I didn't mind because these were due anyway.
