Is there anyone with FX 35 engine knowledge here?
I got the ODB code p0420, Catalyst System Efficiency Below Threshold (Bank 1).
Is bank 1 the left or the right catalyst?

I try to order a new one online because the local repair total cost is about 6000$, if I order the pars myself for about 1000$ I could get someone else to change it for alot less. But I dont know if I should order a left / right cat on the us websites.

Do you think I should try with O2 sensors first? I have done exhaust test and it doesnt show any extra carbon monoxide emission. (its was infact better than most other cars according to company doing the test).

Still dont know if O2 sensors is left or right cat... Any help would be great!
