What converter did you replace it with? This is where quality really matters. Most cheaper aftermarket cats will not correct the 420 code or do so for only a short while. I'm not saying that is your issue, just my own observation.

Overall probably the biggest mistake vehicles owners make when they have a P0420 code is to simply replace an oxygen sensor (H02S). It is important to do proper diagnosis so you're not wasting money replacing parts unnecessarily.
