WANTED the CAT for GR95

Postby wwvitaly » Tue Jul 07, 2009 1:40 pm

Hi all,
I failed my NCT 5 times now on poxy emissions, spent over 200 Eur on the tests. Lambda is replaced, so it must be the CAT.

Does anybody have second hand one for sale?

Thanks

Hi,

the best way would be to buy new cat. There is wide range of standard cats with different length and diameters. There will be some welding job required to fit it but at least it will not cost as new branded cat.
I bought one used cat from Sebastian and failed the NCT due to emmision. The spark plugs been fitted new before test. At the end - waisted time and money 90eur for used cat and NCT cost....

No Seb, after my experience I am just saying to wwvitaly that there is a risk of buying used cat. converter. It is like buying "cat in the bag". My emission test result was 0.7% out of allowance with cat. converter fitted after I purchased it from you. I did not wanted to look again for another used cat.converter so after some research I bought new non branded cat for 150eur + 50eur fitting costs and went to NCT for the 3rd time and I passed it.
