Catalytic converter bad??? What are symptoms? How do I replace it?
Catalytic converter bad??? What are symptoms? How do I replace it?
Hit a big, big bump. Car hopped. Now hear a low clucking sound out of exhaust. At cold start get a sulfur rotten eggs smell from exhaust. Is this a catalytic converter problem. Has anyone replaced their catalytic converter? How did you do it ? Any tricks/tips ? Please, wrench turners preferred. Looking for better advice than "Take it to the shop". Thanks

Pretty strait forward - 13mm wrench and 12mm wrench- looking at about 1000 bucks for a factory one. Most after market are junk and will throw a code for the cats in a couple hundred miles.
