Crap, really? Because that was the whole reason we were replacing the cats in the first place -- CEL is on.jake15 wrote:and the newer cars dont respond well to aftermarket cats.. they still have a tendency to turn the cel on. we just had a customer in the shop today who has exactly that problem. he replaced the cats himself with aftermarket cats and what do you know, cel is still on
Subaru is gonna have a problem then.thefultonhow wrote:Actually, the 2001 Subarus in general got cursed with bad O2 sensors, and the dealer replaced at least one of them a couple of times under warranty when the car was newer. So the O2s don't surprise me at all. And on NASIOC I'm seeing a lot of people with cars (Imprezas, Legacies, and Foresters) of around this vintage and mileage with bad cats. The code the mechanic pulled was P0420, which is legitimately a bad cat.
