Catalytic Converter Replacement

Professional catalytic converter repair and replacement to keep your vehicle emissions compliant.

Service Overview

A catalytic converter is an exhaust emission control device that reduces toxic gases and pollutants in exhaust gas from an internal combustion engine into less-toxic pollutants by catalyzing a redox reaction. Catalytic converters are used with internal combustion engines fueled by either petrol or diesel.

If your catalytic converter is failing, you may notice reduced engine performance, a rotten egg smell from the exhaust, or your check engine light may illuminate. At Car Services in Reading, we provide expert catalytic converter diagnostics, repair, and replacement services.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common signs include reduced engine performance, decreased fuel efficiency, a rattling noise from underneath the vehicle, a sulfur or rotten egg smell from the exhaust, and the check engine light (often with codes P0420 or P0430).
A catalytic converter typically lasts around 10 years or 100,000 miles. However, its lifespan can be shortened by engine problems such as burning oil, coolant leaks, or poor fuel quality. Regular maintenance helps extend its life.
