Is it true there's a Catalytic convert warranty on all cars under 8years/80k miles?
 
My car is 70,600 miles right now and am having problems getting an exhaust because the cat is so rusted. Can I claim to a Nissan dealer that it failed emissions and get it replaced? Right now my flex section is crumbled apart, the cat is in terrible condition, thick red rust everywhere and also falling apart.

It's either or, 8 years OR 80k miles, which ever you reach first. Yours ran out 2 years ago.

not allowed to sell new or used?

I know thieves are ripping these off of tacomas and 4runners to recycle em and make some money.

new. i ordered a magnaflow high flow cat, and they said because of the new law they cannot sell to californians.

I hate california laws, why couldn't it just be like all other states. LOL how and why are thieves ripping it off cars?

shadyonedeath Sep 30, 2009 11:46 PM

california has highest rated air polution.

Not cars, trucks. Easy to get under them and cut the cat without a jack

They steal the converters for the precious metals inside. :nono:

So have it shipped to a member in OR, and then to you. Would the shipping be less than if you bought from dealr or local parts house?

shadyonedeath Oct 1, 2009 11:38 AM

it needs to be CARB stamped.

I thought of that too, believe me. but i found a 5th gen muffler and a Cat from a wrecked car for 100$.
