Hmmm, sometimes turning the car on and off resets certain systems so maybe it corrected itself. That happens with me lights every once in awhile. It light warning will come on. I'll stop and do something come back and turn the car on and everything is fine. Go figure, like everyone else I'm just glad I don't end up at the dealers.

P0301 = misfire cylinder 1
P0422 = main catalytic converter bank 1 below threshold/wiring/HO2S 2.

if the CEL has gone off don't worry about it but if it comes on again the P0422 is the problem

a common problem is the o2 sensor HO2S 2 bank 1, if you drive through cold water and it hits the sensor is shocks the system and a code is set but goes away if your lucky when it re-heats up other wise the sensor is damaged (worth noting for the off roader)
