Welcome to MF, sorry about the slow reply.

Here is a site to check out.

http://www.obd-codes.com/p0175

They are both similar.

Could be a vacuum leak or fuel pressure problem.

mass airflow is bad, intake leaks, low fuel pressure all possibilities

Could be O2 sensors reading wrong and messing up your AF ratio.
