Ok, I replaced both O2 sensors in on the left side. I did not replace the after cat one. I cleared the codes and the 0420 code came back. This code is supposed to be cat efficiency. I cleared it again yesterday and it has not come back.....yet. Why did I get this code after replacing the sensors? Is the after cat sensor getting ready to go? Should I replace it anyhow?



Thanx Mike


the 'cat efficiency' code relates to O2 seen in the exhaust AFTER the CC

I'd replace that one too, if you already did the other two
