Anyone with this error? "p0420 catalyst system efficiency below threshold" This is now the 2nd time I've cleared it - new cats needed already? Truck has 7300 miles on it...

yes.Stock exhaust?
Cat efficiency DTCs are not typically the result of a sensor issue; the condition is calculated, not directly measured. Meaning a skewed/faulty sensor reading will typically set a DTC well before the catalyst monitor is able to run. Common causes for cat efficiency DTCs include exhaust leaks, poor quality/contaminated fuel, and aftermarket engine modifications.bumping this - I have SPD cats for the last year and a half, getting this code AGAIN. Must be bad 02 sensors? Bank 1 is passenger? @FordTechOne help!
Not likely. Here’s the list of possible causes to consider:Hmmm i only use premium top tier fuel. Could an intake and intercooler cause it?
