Post the full. Description of the codes.
Do you still have the old plugs. Is the original code gone now? Are these a set of diffrent codes?

Seem to be running fine, just codes..I cleared them and I'll have my wife drive it and see if they come back....They smog place actually failed me because I didn't have any paperwork for the CAT......

Re: 2005 Pilot with the p430 code.
You following me son. Trying to learn from Daddy on the sly??? Thats ok I'll allow it,just keep your mouth shut.
Meh, I told you it was unnecessary to buy they O2's. You bought those for nothing and still ended up having to buy a Cat. I also told you the Cat HAS to be a dealer only Cat. It is the only type legal in CA for your vehicle..Oh well live and learn. It would seem to be pretty obvious that the problem must be the plugs. AutoZone parts are generally pretty crappy. You do not have to buy plugs from the dealer. Just shop online as someone else mentioned earlier. You can get the OEM plug for a decent price....
OK, I didn't do anything to this car until recently. As mentioned, I changed the fwd bank, pre and post cat O2 sensors, trying to avoid the cat. I put Auto Zone $8 platinum plugs in and then took the car to the dealer to verify it was the fwd CAT, they said Yes it was, I got a new CAT from somewhere else, installed it, reset the check engine light, then took off for a drive, I put 70 miles on it, stopped for something and when I got back in and restarted, the damn check engine light was on! I came home and pulled the codes, they were mis fire codes for #1-4. My buddy says that the non dealer plugs could be the problem. I cleared the codes and will drive it around for a while and see what happens.. Would these platinum plugs cause these codes, after about 200 miles?? Car is driving me nuts.....
