I finally got around to replacing my valve cover gaskets this past weekend and while I had the intake off, I replaced my spark plugs, blow by hose, PCV and hose and new intake plenum gaskets. I also replaced my cam solenoid gaskets and throttle body gasket.
While doing this I found my heater hose for the rear heat and AC nipple was broken and shelled out $300 for this part and replaced it as well.
I pulled my fault codes tonight and have P 0420 and P 0430 codes as well as same codes pending...
I found another code P0507 which could have multiple causes, but seems most likely a dirty TB. Mine was very dirty, but I didnt take the time to clean it during this other repair. It has never been cleaned before. I did not unplug the electrical connector to it or remove any coolant hoses.
I will be changing the cats to the Walker replacements soon I hope..Is the other P 0507 code something to worry over immediately? The car starts and runs great...182k on the odometer and a 2006 model.
Thanks
