7 out of 10 times that means that one of the cat's have gone bad. Most of the time it happens when your mileage is around 100,000 miles. The only thing is to do is to change the bad cat.

OBDii code reads P0430 Catalyst System Efficiency Below Threshold Bank 2. Will that prevent the vehicle from starting, no other codes noted...?

P0430 would not prevent engine start. Neither would the VSC light. Have to go back to the basics. Do you have spark and good fuel pressure? Is the computer seeing crank and cam sensor data?

Car sometimes will not start after sits for a day

Definition of Diagnostic Trouble Code P0420 Category: Powertrain Definition: Catalyst System Efficiency Below Threshold Bank 1Note: This definition of P0420 is applied to all manufacturers

As the code description implies the P0430 code means that the vehicle's control module has detected that the three-way catalytic converter is not working properly (is not as efficient as the factory is expecting). Replacing the oxygen (O2) sensors may sometimes fix the code, but in most cases the catalytic convert needs to be replaced to fix the problem. If the P0430 code is combined with other codes, try fixing the other codes first.

I have a code P0430 on a Lincoln after changings all coils on a 2004 Lincoln V6, what caused and How do I fix it?

P0430 is Catalyst System Efficiency Below Threshold (Bank 2).

A code P0430 may mean that one or more of the following has happened:

  • The catalytic converter is no longer functioning properly
  • An oxygen sensor is not reading (functioning) properly
  • There is an exhaust leak

First, inspect for exhaust leaks.

Next step is to measure the voltage at the oxygen sensor on Bank 2. In fact, it would be a good idea to test each oxygen sensor while you're at it.

Code PO42O and PO43O ? Anyone know what they

The meaning of: P0420 Catalyst System Efficiency Below Threshold on Bank 1 P0430 Catalyst System Efficiency Below Threshold on Bank 2

Basically the Oxygen sensors ( one before and one after the catalytic converter ) have abnormal readings from the exhaust. Further diagnosing will need to be done by a mechanic to find the source of the problem. The possibilities could be the O2 sensors themselves, a leak in the exhaust manifold, a bad catalytic converter, and etc.
