Auto repair question re: mechanic diagnostic
Posted on 1/2/15 at 8:09 pm

I failed emissions. I know the obd code (p0421) and the listed reasons for the obd code for my make. If I take it to a mechanic, dealer or otherwise, and pay for a diagnostics, will they tell me anything more specific than the obd code and potential causes publishes for the obd code?
I don't want to pay $115 for them to just tell me what the obd code "usually" means.

I think that you can just put some STP in the gas and it will be fine.

IIRC, that's either an o2 sensor or bad cat. How many miles do you have?

Have you taken it somewhere like autozone to let them dump the codes? They may be able to tell you something more specific....
