Not that it wouldn't make it, but I wouldn't drive my TL that far. Although, I've thought about getting a hold of a small truck and trailer. Sure sounds like it's gonna be fun.

P0430 Front Bank Catalyst System Efficiency Below Threshold (Bank 2). Anyone??

I have a P0430 code on a 3rd gen TL, but I can't figure which one I need to change... the Catalytic Converter or the O2 sensor. Any ideas on how to figure it out?

Saw them on a few 240's and a civic. Apparently they are not as concave as they appear to be. A few TL guys just got theirs so I guess I'll see the real deal soon.
