PULCHERFLOW Catalytic Converter Compatible with 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 Toyota Corolla 1.8L Catalytic Convertor High Performance (EPA Compliant)

I found a great deal on a very low mile 2010 Corolla last year but within 1 week of purchase the check engine light came on reporting a P0420 engine code. (Problem with the catalytic converter). Seeing that the car is 13 years old and only had 18K miles I figured some build had occurred from sitting. Over the period of about 6 months I tried multiple bottles and brands of catalytic converter cleaner which would work for 2-3 weeks and then throw the code again. After the error got more frequent I decided it needed replaced. Looking at an OEM one to replace would have been around $2K with labor which was way too high. I found this one and figured it was worth a try.I took it to my local muffler shop and they had the original one off and this one on in about 20 minutes. I have used this shop many times and they are very good at what they do. They charged me $140 for the service and so far it has been working great for a month. I hope this continues to work fine for many years to come. If I experience any issues I will update this review but so far, its working great.

Perfect fit in terms of the flange end and pipe bends. I did have to Mig weld the pipe at the resonator end. My 2009 Matrix had a secondary resonator that required a little trimming with a disc grinder to have the new pipe fit in its opening.Tack the pipe with as Mig/Tig and then drop the pipe from the rubber hangers enough to complete the 360 degree weld to seal off the connection. Lift the pipe back up and bolt it to the header pipe. I found the supplied bolts were smaller diameter than the original, they passed through the old nuts that are welded to the connector. No issues at all, and at least $1K less expensive than a muffler shop.You may have to use a torch to heat the old catalytic converter near the sensor to get unscrewed without breaking it. It’s a pricy replacement take your time with the sensor. A little anti-seize on the threads will make sensor remove easier in the future, if you keep the car that long :)

Se le apagó la luz del catalitico

Pour mon voiture, excellente, le prix bonne, merci

Passed inspection and it hasn't failed updated 03/21/23 unfortunately the compression was bad on the engine in 2009 Toyota Corolla so I sold the car but it didn't have any check engine code except cylinder 3 which was due to compression
