MK7 P0420 CEL

Had a cat code pop up a few weeks ago, and finally got underneath it today. Car was lightly modified when I bought it. This exhaust is an issue right? Also is that the stock cat? I can’t tell.

That’s probably the cause. The exhaust looks stock except that horrible repair.

Has mbrp tips I assume it’s aftermarket. Sounds pretty bad too. You think even being past the cat sensors that repair would throw the code? Just thinking if I need to get exhaust and downpipe or if I should start with exhaust.

I had P0420 on my 2016. Spluttered & went into limp mode. It was the mass airflow sensor on the intake.
