I just put a used SLP lid on my 02 ws6 I bought off a member here. He sent along the lid and also the MAF and IAT sensor since he had trouble getting the MAF out. The car has been running great. Power is up, idle is better and it's got better throttle response.
However a couple days ago it threw a P0430 code for the passenger side rear o2 sensor. I switched the rear sensors side to side, cleared the code, and it came back again for the same side. So now I know the sensor isn't the problem. Looks like my CAT is shot on that side.
Before I go spending money on new cat's, is it in anyway possible that the things I just put on could cause this? Lid not sealing? IAT not reading and pushing too much/not enough fuel? MAF sending bad readings?

It's out of the warranty for the cats. Too many miles.
MAF is a stock one that still has the screen. I did a little research and found that sometimes the SLP lids don't seal right. You have to kind of force them under the front "lip" of the bottom box. So I did that and the clamps are definetly tighter now. Will clear the code and see what happens. Doesn't take more than 15 mins of run time for it to pop back up once I've cleared it.
I've also checked the voltage of the sensors with my scan tool while the car is running. From o2 voltage varies like it's supposed to, rear stays pretty much the same.
