jeepandlexus Posted December 4, 2009 Posted December 4, 2009 Well, my suspictions were confirmed. Power and mileage were down and there is a pretty good leak coming from under the Lex. I just got my first Check Engine Light....... So funny how the Lex became my car after it got hit LOL......anyway, I have a code reader so it was no big deal. It gave me an inefficient catalyst code. I am assuming the CAT is shot. Where are u guys shopping for cats besides ebay?

In order to determin if it is the cat use a rubber mallet and tap the cat if there is nothing rattling around than it is the sensor
