Check cats?
I have a light that says check cats I believe, on my 02 Z06. It says check, and then it has a figure of a cat, What does it mean? What should I do?
I'll be reading the FAQ when I have time today, and the owner's manual. I just wonder if anyone here has had this happened.
Thx-Goose

Well, I haven't noticed any drop in performance, or any signs of the cats being clogged. I'm thinking bad fuel, perhaps.-Goose

I am not sure on other years, but on my '04, I can read codes, as well as clear them off my dash. Turn on ignition but don't start engine. press reset to turn off messages. press and hold options button and press fuel four times with in 10 sec. On-board diagnostics go into auto mode. Each module will show if a code exist. Write it down, than look it up. You do not need a scan tool! Pretty cool actually.

Don't give me any ideas, man.
I've been looking for my extended warranty card and info. I may have to take it to the dealer, and have them take a look.

This sounds like what it probably is.
