    When by Autozone to run a scan on the check engine light. Code they gave me is P117A. Anyone know what it is?

    Never heard of that code or any code starting with an "A" for that matter. I'd try a different place or buy your own scanner.

    Did they give you a definition for the code?
    If it sounds like sarcasm, it probably is.

    Yea saw that table. That's why I'm all confused, maybe he read the code wrong. or I heard A instead of 8. Hopefully could get a hold of vagcom tonight.

    Is it possible for the sensor right after the cat to be triggered due to increased airflow of my catback? Should I give 42dd O2 spacer a try?

    Increased flow post-cat would not have an affect on the rear o2 sensor.
    If you removed the cat, or added a high-flow cat, you would throw a catalytic inefficiency code.
