Most cars have a converter that can be replaced with a high quality aftermarket converter for a price much less than what a factory converter would cost, but many cars such as cars with California emissions and many Toyota vehicles will require a specialized converter or in some cases a new factory converter to satisfy the scrutiny of the powertrain computer.   Lower priced converters typically equate to less precious metals internally and a reduced expected lifespan.   Factory converters almost always out-perform an aftermarket in lifespan.   Call or come by for a  quote.

Your cars engine management system is fairly reliable in diagnosing a failed catalytic converter and in most cases it simply needs to be replaced with a quality unit.  It is important to determine what caused the converter to fail and diagnose any other trouble codes first. Also it is important to check for any software updates.  The most common causes of converter failure are engine misfires and contamination from oil consumption.  We can offer additional guidance based upon what we see after the failed unit is inspected.
