Re: 2003 Impalla 3.4 ltr code p0420a

This is a catalyst efficieny code. The sluggishness that you describe is due to a restriction on one of the catalytic converters. This puts more stress on the engine and can cause more problems the longer that this vehicle is run like this. To best check this is remove the O2 sensors and more than likely it will run better since it has less restrictions.
