Hi Tiago, The VSS sensor is typically located on the driver's side of the transmission case in your car. a repair manual can provide specific visuals.. A faulty or dirty VSS sensor can trigger this code. Check the wiring harness near the sensor for any visible damage. If the wiring looks okay you can try carefully cleaning the sensor itself with electrical cleaner. If the code persists after cleaning and inspection, speak to a mechanic for diagnosis and potential replacement. P0420 Catalytic Converter this code indicates a problem with the catalytic converter system, which involves the exhaust system. Due to the potential complexity of diagnosing and repairing the exhaust system, speak to a mechanic is the best option. They can pinpoint the exact issue, whether it's the converter itself, oxygen sensors like the upstream sensor before the converter for Bank 1 in your car, or exhaust leaks. Brake vibration,warped brake rotors are a common culprit for brake vibration when cold. While replacing rotors might be a DIY project for some, it's generally recommended to have a mechanic confirm the diagnosis. They can ensure other components aren't causing the vibration and recommend a solution, resurfacing or replacing the rotors. A flashing airbag light signifies a serious malfunction in the airbag system. I would get this looked at ASAP as it's critical for safety. This requires immediate attention as soon as possible. Airbag systems are complex and require specialists to ensure your safety. Hope this helps.

OK back to the car in question and seller turns out it's a garage not a private sale . I told him to day that I found the old add with the CAT.. N info on it and the new don't have the CAT N info on it I asked him for the information off the log book to do the hpi check he refused to give the 11 dig log book one so I can't do the check till buy the car . So I'm going to go all over the car to see if there any faults if I find any. As we not planning on selling the car the insurance said its fine so I still need to hear your info . Cheers -
This thread is of interest to me as I am seriously thinking of getting the new C-HR, so much so that I have had a conversation with the dealer. I have read numerous reviews on t'net and watched loads of YouTube videos and am nearly convinced! Does some one want to try and talk me out of it .....? 😉

I had the same issue for years. Meloned is correct, attempting to remove the sensor can cause the bolt to snap so you would need to drill it out. I my case it's probably the ABS ring rather than the sensor, which is possible to replace but it's not easy. The costs for the ring is about £10 online. Costs for labor - I don't know if the garages would even take such a job on. For them is easier to replace the wheel hub assembly which comes with part warranty etc.

Are you going for a Toyota upgraded radio with the Sat nav integrated or a aftermarket head unit that fits in the hole? If it's a aftermarket HU Then it could be a plug for plug direct replacement or a ISO loom, Toyota cabling to the ISO to the aftermarket HU. Whatever, it's a breeze to change,you can't go wrong.

Hi John,If you fix the catalytic converter heat shield without a washer, you risk potential problems. The main issue would be a significant increase in rattling and noise coming from the exhaust system. The washers act as a buffer, absorbing vibrations that would otherwise cause the heat shield to bang against the exhaust pipe. Without the washers, these vibrations would be directly transmitted, creating a constant and likely louder tin can sound.The continuous rattling and contact between the heat shield and exhaust pipe could damage both components. Over time, the vibrations could wear down the metal of the heat shield and exhaust pipe, leading to holes or cracks. As mentioned earlier, the washers also help accommodate thermal expansion. Without them, the connection between the heat shield and exhaust pipe becomes more rigid. This rigidity could cause stress on the exhaust components as the system heats up and cools down during operation. In extreme cases, this stress could lead to cracked. Hope this helps.
