Re: P0420 code but no DIC failure Posted by Larry West [Email] (#1140) [Profile/Gallery] (more from Larry West) on Fri, 1 Jun 2018 13:08:14 In Reply to: P0420 code but no DIC failure, fdw201 [Profile/Gallery] , Fri, 1 Jun 2018 07:44:59 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
How many times have you gotten this code? Is it consistent? Once? Occasionally?
My 2000 SE (same motor) does the same thing, throwing the P0420 very occasionally. It seems to me that I will get it on a short start-stop routine, like running errands, and also sometimes when there is a tailwind at low speed or when parked.
I'm convinced with my car, that though the code does point to the cat, unless I am getting it frequently, I'll just clear it, or let it clear itself, until the next time.
