Just for the hell of it can you patch the exhaust leak (even though it's beyond the muffler) with some type of metal wrap?

Being it's on the 01 and those have 2 cats with 4 sensors wide band. Those will detect a high airflow burned out cat error.
My 02 Camry had that error and it was the front cat burn through.
So being it disables the VSC and Trac with the CEL on. What happens when you put a spacer with 2 gaskets on the 2nd O2 sensor after the first cat?

01 and 02 have 4 oxygen sensors? I thought they only had 2 of them total similar to the Cali emissions 4Runners from earlier years.

Mine really never goes away, went away after changing the rear O2 sensor a few weeks ago, just to come back. I gave up.

I will verify but I thought they had more then 2 as the federal emissions of 96-00. I will report back when i look under my 01 sport
for some magic reason, today it was not on....dont get it...yet i found another way to get the cel light out of my face.........the 2001 is for sale.....I will be honest, if the light is off, I will tell someone that it will pop on and what it "could" indicate
but shcuks I drove it for 6 months with it on....in the winter/snow
