I have a 2001 Honda Accord that has had the check engine light come on about 5 times in the past few months. First it was the temperature gauge (so I replaced it), then it was the 02 sensor (had it replaced) now I am getting a P0420 code. I am getting full maintenance done in about a week and decided to have the guy clear the code and get it fixed when I'm home. The check engine light popped back up again today. Should I be concerned or can I wait another week?

O420 code is either a O2 sensor, air leak or a bad converter. A pro will h ave to check the voltages to see what it is. You can wait another week if you like the check engine light will come back on so don't bother having it removed.
