I have a 2003 Jetta 2.0 4 cylinder with the engine light on, I hooked up my OBD II scanner and it gave me five codes. P0420 (Catalyst System Efficiency Below threshold) (Bank 1), P0351 (Ignition coil 'A' Primary/Secondary Circuit, P0352 Ignition Coil 'B' Primary/Secondary Circuit, P0353 Ignition Coil 'C' Primary/Secondary Circuit, P0354 Ignition Coil 'D' Primary/Secondary Circuit. Do I need to get a new front O2 sensor for the catalectic converter and a new Ignition coil? Further information on the P0420 code when scanned, is Fuel System 1 Closed Loop, Calculated LOAD 14.9%, Engine Coolant Temp 194 degrees, STFT Bank 1 -0.7%, LTFT Bank 1 0.07%, Engine RPM2560, Vehicle Speed 54

Without have car on a scan tool to check each component hard to say what is needed. Is P0420 the first code set? No miss then coils are good so I would go with O2. But check for any leaks in exhaust and intake. The info at bottom of first post was that in snapshot mode?
