Replying to: wwest (Apr 23, 2009 3:43 pm) Well I have a pile of like new aftermarket converters,If u are intrested in them. No one pays more then 5 bucks for a used aftermaket converter. U get 5 to 10 times more for a used oe converter. I know why that is, do u? Replies to this message: wwest (Apr 24, 2009 9:38 am) wwest (Apr 24, 2009 9:44 am)

Replying to: toptech (Apr 23, 2009 3:49 pm) "...I know why that is, do u?.."   Yes, absolutely.   Not even the after market service shops will install a non-OEM labelled converter, so the vendors are disposing of the stock on hand at firesale prices.   Is it because those non-OEM labelled converters are less efficient, less reliable, or is it because there is a LOT more profit to pocket if you begin with the pricing level of an OEM labelled converer...??

Replying to: toptech (Apr 23, 2009 3:49 pm) "...No one pays more than 5 bucks for a used aftermarket converter..."   Who, in their right mind, would buy a USED converter, aftermarket or otherwise...??   Maybe if I removed it myself from the low mileage donor car at the wrecking yard, otherwise I would be highly suspicious of the "source".

Replying to: toptech (Apr 22, 2009 3:54 pm) Now the check engine light has gone off several days ago. Car is running fine and my mechanic insists its OK. I'm going with the status quo for now. Thanks for your input.

I have the same problem with the Cat Con on my 03 Camry LE. How can you find which one is bad? Can you buy OEM's at discount? And is there a special procedure for installation?

My dealer told me that there is a service bulletin instructing him to replace my catalytic converter under warranty. My check engine light came on, I took it in, dealer said the code indicated the catalytic converter and that for 02 - 04 Camrys ( I may remember the years wrong, but mine is an 03) they are reprogramming the computers in the car, and installing new converters, for free.   The dealer said he give me a copy of the service bulletin. I can provide additional detail if anyone is interested later.

Replying to: middleroad (Jul 01, 2009 1:01 pm) Hello Middleroad!   It would be VERY helpful to obtain a copy of the service bulletin concerning the Catalytic converter replacements. I phoned a local Toyota dealership (service dept) today and they could not find anything about this (perhaps it is new?). Any direction would be greatly appreciated.

Replying to: middleroad (Jul 01, 2009 1:01 pm) I, too, would love to have a copy of the service bulletin! I have a 2002 Camry and the check engine light code is for the catalytic converter. If you would send me any details you can, I would be most appreciative. Thanks!
