Since replacing/re-routing the vacuum lines, my persistent P0422 has given way to a P0420 (twice).

Re: 1997 850 T5
Bosch rotor (Bosch #04272) and cap (Bosch #03371) installed.
Air filter cleaned in mild soapy water.
Battery disconnected.
Cleared "half a code" after nearly 200 miles with nothing set. Started thinking what to call this... settled on "pre-code".

Just hit 110k miles.
Castle Rock round trip, 30.8 mpg.
Topped up trans fluid.
200+ miles with a pre-code, ugh. Half boost is killing me. Will clear it either way after next trip. Not affecting MPG, fortunately.
Next parts order: tie rods (TRW), axle seals and lower engine mounts.
To do:
-install the above
-trunk struts
-oil return line gasket, o-ring
-remove headlight wipers
-redo control arms - tightening bolts at ride height this time
-replace fuel filter
-tighten RF strut nut
-Seafoam
-alignment
