P20EE Code Explained: SCR NOx Catalyst Efficiency Below Threshold (Bank 1)

In this video, we break down the P20EE diagnostic trouble code (DTC), which signals that the Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) system—specifically the NOx catalyst on Bank 1—is not reducing nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions effectively. This code is common in diesel engines equipped with DEF (Diesel Exhaust Fluid) systems.

Typical causes of the P20EE code include a worn or contaminated SCR catalyst, faulty NOx sensors, DEF quality issues, or exhaust system leaks. If left unaddressed, this code can lead to emissions system failure, reduced engine performance, or even limp mode activation in some vehicles.

In this video, we guide you through checking NOx sensor readings, verifying DEF quality, inspecting the SCR system for damage, and determining whether a sensor replacement, catalyst cleaning, or full SCR replacement is needed to fix the issue.
