2000outback Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 I just got some more bad news about this #$@^ Outback.Two weeks ago the CEL came on and the code said Knock sensor.Replaced that and now CEL came back on and it's a code P0420.So it's either a catalytic converter or maybe an oxygen sensor.Here in Canada a cat is $1000.oo or the oxygen sensor is close to $200.I read in another thread that someone said to try the sensor is only $70 USD.Where are you buying for that and what is the aprt number.

rlsimpso Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 1stsubaruparts.com has them listed for about $95US for the 00-03 Outback. I would guess the $70US ones are Bosch. O2 sensor is most most likely the cause of the low cat error Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nipper Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 90% of the time its the o2 Sensors, its been a while since anyone has had to replace a cat here nipper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
