CEL light... Error on Pre Cat?

hey,

Last night on the way to school my CEL light came one. Knew it was none of my aftermarket parts so I took it to the dealer and they pulled the code. The guy told me it was my "pre-cat" which needed to be replaced; under warrantee of course. Just wondering if anyone has had this problem. I never knew there was a "pre-cat" to begin with.


Thanks,


Brett

there is no pre-cat on the evo...unless it is buried in the stock dp. but as far as i know there isnt. you should get your own code reader. i need to get another one, cause my auto-xray is starting to hit the crapper

You have to remove the heat shield and exhaust manafold...

ahhhhhhhh funny...

I saw the code and watched the guy look it up... I'm not paying for it anyway, so they can change what ever they would like.

21 is the O2 sensor housing. No "pre-cat" there.
