Dang! The CEL light came on again...
Minding my own business going to work this morning when the CEL light came on. I changed direction and went straight to the dealer to check. The codes indicate that the right catalytic converter is the cause.
This happened once before about 5 months ago. Back then, I had attributed it to having it sit in my garage for 8 days (was on business trip). Well, add this to my planned visit next Tuesday as they also will try to fix my front brakes!

Even sitting for 8 days shouldn't cause a cat. problem... (more)
What did they do last time? Any repairs, or just code clears? I'm wondering if they had replaced your O2 sensors or anything.

They inspected the cat. but it looked fine. (more)
They then cleared the codes and let it run for a while to see if the CEL came back on. It didn't. Now it's back. They're leaving the code in for now so it can be further checked on Tuesday. No O2 sensors were replaced.
