I scanned my car recently when I had check engine and VSC lights on. I got P0420 and P0446 codes with code descriptions catalyst system efficiency below threshold and Evap emission system vent control circuit respectively. I took the car to the mechanic to check, he said the EVAP was okay and the P0420 occurred as a result of bad catalytic converter which I do not want to believe. He did not even check just relying on the code description. I cleared the codes. However, the code P0446 reoccurred after a week.
However, I get this kind of fume smell when the engine is started which I think could be a leak in between the manifold and the catalytic converter.
Could you please help me out with what to do to solve the two codes though I have cleared them out with my scanner, and have not come up again?
