Exclamation P0420 CODE catalyst system

P0420 - catalyst system efficiency below threshold Bank (1)

After replacing catalyc with aftermarket i got a code in 2 weeks.

i found online that it can be from an exhaust leak!

Today i took care of that and erased the code. i want to see if it will come up again,

Has anyone seen that before?

Most likely your second cat was smaller and cheaper than the first. I've had that code for a year now it will always come back within an hour
