Barryst now i have p0420 which is bank 1 converter i think. could my mechanic telling me to "drive it with the misfires on bank 2 till it does it all the time" caused bank 1 to have problems? i drove it bout two weeks like that til i get fed up with him not even knowing what an OCV is and did it myself. not happy with my FORMER mechanic right about now!!!

Did your TRAC OFF light come on as well? My wifes car is having the same issue.

I'm going to get the OCV as well. But not sure which one to get. Bank 1 or 2

Did you just take a guess and it happened to be on BANK 1 (near the firewall) and not the BANK 2 (near the radiator)

Also has anyone seen a picture or diagram of where the OCV is?
