Looks to me like you got a bad cat...

Yeah this is what the dealer said as well. but they want to charge me 1700 bucks (canadian) for just the part alone. RIDCULOUS. trying to get away with not paying that.

 

$1700 for a cat!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! There are laws against price gauging here!

You can pick up near top of the line high flow cat for under $100, and have a decent exhaust shop cut and weld it in for you for about $50-75 labor!!!

 

canada sucks!!!! that allot of $$$$ for a cat, hell guys in mt area cut them off and throw them away from the get go .

 

One thing i have heard is that if your cat is starting to get a little clogged, take it out and drive it hard and long to make the engine work. Its said to burn out whatever is in the cat

 

I have the same code coming up also, but i have a high flow cat whould that make it come up?

 

And this is one other code im getting P0579 Cruise Ctrl Multi-Function Input A Circ Range/Perf

 

code p0420. Its either your cat is clogged or your pipe is empty??
