P1162 on a BMW means the engine computer (DME) has detected that the additive fuel trim adaptation for bank 1 has hit its low limit during the ignition-on learning phase. The engine is running too lean at idle and low load, and the computer can no longer add enough fuel to correct it.
Guidance is general and written for BMW vehicles. Exact tests and values vary by model, so confirm the fault before replacing parts.
