If I need a repair shop, I always go to Precision Motion in Riverside. Great guys and they do excellent work.
Pomerlo gave you the best link!
Info by drip feed :-) ?
O.k. -with the new info - different suggestion.
Clean the MAF, do clear the codes and drive a little (to Riverside?) to see if they return .Let PreMo do the O2 Voltage observations, FRA & RKAT. But take the part numbers of all the items you replaced (see my previous post) RND Euro Parts have a reliable site for checking correct part numbers
PreMo will quickly tell you if it is O2 Sensor failure or Cats.
Look carefully at The MAF -does it have a droopy 'nose' ? Look at parts photos to see what I mean. The old part is different.The correct one varies by age/model and to use the new MAF you may need a reflash for the later MAF.There is a TSB but PreMo will do that if necessary.
Tell them if you are using a K&N air filter & have recently oiled it.
Mention any change in Oil Consumption.overfilling of oil, ,Tracking/wild driving/AOS failure.
