if it's running rich on a computer controlled system, there may be numerous issues. The air intake may be clogged, the MAF sensor may be bad, the injectors may be stuck open, the EGR recirculation pipe may be clogged (this should throw a code), the EGR valve may be stuck shut (this would usually throw a code as well), etc.

You'll definitely want to check the air intake and filter to make sure nothing is clogged (like a rat crawled up in the system and died or something) and maybe run some injector cleaner through a few tanks of gas.
