What a catalytic converter replacement involves

The catalytic converter reduces harmful exhaust emissions. It can fail because of oil burning, misfires or age. A faulty converter causes power loss, higher fuel consumption and an engine warning light, and can fail the emissions test at the ITP inspection.

How to choose a repair shop in Río

  • Ask for a written price before the job and what it covers: labour, parts, materials.
  • Compare it with the typical range of 200–900 EUR. A price far below it deserves one more question.
  • Ask what warranty you get and keep the invoice: without it, a warranty is hard to prove.
  • Check the address and opening hours on the shop's profile and confirm them before you set off. These details change.
