The codes usually start with a po then a number but if cruising a common one is cat below threshold especially if you have a 2nd decat.

If that's what it refers to then yes remove it and give it a clean, just when I had a cel whilst cruising on motorway with my sportcat and 2nd decat it read as cat efficiency below threshold but after a reset it never came back again
