My Front Cat is starting to go. The emissions light is on the I can hear it rattle. I have a couple questions hoping someone could help. The car is a 2005 with 190,000km on it..... Well maintained and drives great.
1. The shop wants $2200 to replace the front cat with an OEM parts. They simply said there is no cheap way to do this. I am assuming that is a bolt on Cat. Do I have any other options here? Are after market Cats any good?
2. Will there be any long term damage to either my engine or gas mileage driving with a busted cat? I think it is working at around 50-60 percent right now. No smells or anything.
