Hi guys,
as some of you know i have got a little light shouting spend some money on me on my car - *Engine Warning Light*
i ran a Dyanostic test on it last night and we erased the code and then turn the car on and the light was still on - bit confused ? ?
Code/Problem
Code : P0420
Problem : Catalyst Efficiency below threshold Bank 1
Does anybody know what this means as it makes no sence to me ? 
Cheers
Jamie

Cat is f****d thru doing too many short journeys, take it out and give it some hammer. If it still doesn't clear, you need a new cat
