Hey guys!

So about two months ago at 116k miles I got a check engine light. My local tire shop in friendly with and they ran the code and they told me it had to do with the catalytic converter. We came to the conclusion that I was using shitty gas (which I was) and that I should see how it goes using better gas. I'm now using BP Plus (don't know what #).

It has been away for around two months now (around 2k miles) but yesterday it popped back up. I used my flashcal to read the DTC and got this: ImageUploadedByWAYALIFE1429646930.161247.jpg

Do you guys think my catalytic converter is shot? Maybe a sensor? I'm at 119k miles right now.

I am going to reset the code for the time being and keep using the gas. If it comes on again I think we have an answer then. But, any suggestions or any feedback would be great!

77k miles on it, so that makes sense.

I think the federal government require the warranty to last up to 80k miles so I would check with your dealer asap see if you can get it fixed for free (if that's the actual problem).
