RE: Catalytic Converter, Please help.....Please!
It's not cheap and easy for someone to check all those stuff if they don't have any tools or knowledge about cars, buddy.
First, the O2 sensor is expensive to replace if I could remember, they charge almost 200 just for one.
What's the obvious sign of bad sensor? or cat?

Do you know anyone who is mechanicaly inclined? If not, find a a place that is, that isnt the dealer and let them deal with it. Get the code cleared, if the cel comes back order the 02 sensor and find someone who will put it in for you for less than $50.

i just replaced my o2 sensor before the cat, the sensor cost me $125.00 with ups red and paid my mechanic $50.00 to put it in, 10 minutes worth of work, i'm a lazy sob. onepoint8tee knows his $h!t so listen to him. go buy a cheap code reader or go to autozone and have them clear it, where in cali are you, i have a code reader and i would clear it for you if you are close.

Why did you replace the sensor?

Thanks... But dont bother buying the code reader, if you have an autozone near by they can read/clear codes for you for free.
But if you run, or have been running anything less than premium gas for a long time, there is a chance your cat is dead... Or is at least the cause of a prematurly failed 02 sensor. I dont know if youll ever answer my question, but if you dont run premium you better start... The cost difference is maybe $5 per tank of gas compared to regular.
O ok premium.. Good..
So, you can just send me the extra 400 or so dollars i just saved you in the form of a check or money order..
jk.. but hopefully that is all that is wrong.. I REALLY doubt your cat is bad though.
