Agreed. Keep giving it a chance to do its thing for a little while and see what happens.I'd keep using Maxlife and see what happens.

Oh my god, I’d love to live in one of those states! To never have to worry about a check engine light or drive ability issue? That would have its benefits for sure.If you live in a state that doesn't test emissions: P0420 doesn't exist, it can't hurt you.
If you live in a state that just plugs into an OBD port (DC, MD, Northern VA, etc): P0420 still doesn't exist, still can't hurt you.
If you live in a state that uses a tailpipe sniffer and does a visual inspection: You will never financially recover from P0420.
Yeah NH is one of the toughest states. They check your brakes, pull the wheels (in some places), can’t tint the front windows, they can fail you for body rust, OBD readiness failure, codes, etc. It can be a little bit of a pain.Judging by their avatar, I'm gonna say OP lives in an OBD check state.
why would you want to tint your "front" windows, I despise tinted period but front tinted windows, that just sounds ridiculous.Yeah NH is one of the toughest states. can’t tint the front windows
I don’t know but a lot of people do it. Uniform look maybe? Front/back. Maybe a slightly lighter tint in the front? Or let’s say you have a two door sports car, people will sometimes tint those windows, no?why would you want to tint your "front" windows, I despise tinted period but front tinted windows, that just sounds ridiculous.
Out here in the "boonies" (hardly) of Virginia there's not even a semblance of emissions testing or a visual inspection. It helps to know the guy that does your inspections too.Oh my god, I’d love to live in one of those states! To never have to worry about a check engine light or drive ability issue?

You think that now, but I've seen lots of cars on the road in Indiana that really probably shouldn't be allowed on the road anymore.Oh my god, I’d love to live in one of those states! To never have to worry about a check engine light or drive ability issue? That would have its benefits for sure.
We get them here too. Just yesterday I followed a pickup that was crabwalking so badly it was sticking out into the adjacent lane. Then you get the cars riding on two or three donut tires, then the ones whose suspension is bouncing/shaking so badly you wonder how they can hold the wheel straight.You think that now, but I've seen lots of cars on the road in Indiana that really probably shouldn't be allowed on the road anymore.
Idk I'll still take it over a state like California (which I lived there for a little under a year). Here in Ok we don't do any of that, and I'm thankful.You think that now, but I've seen lots of cars on the road in Indiana that really probably shouldn't be allowed on the road anymore.
I don’t think a lot of techs enjoy failing cars for emissions, but suspension, brakes, etc? Yeah, that’s a different story.We get them here too.

I'll still take my no safety & emissions testing any day of the week. I've lived in states that had them and it's a total racket. I have a feeling the people in states with safety/emissions testing will still do what they gotta do to get the work, they'll just do it with expired / fake tags since they can't pass the inspection.
