Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Hello old friends (new)
My 02 C2 needs a little urgent maintenance
I had both cats replaced in 2008 under the federal emissions warranty.
The left (driver) replacement cat has given up the ghost, throwing below threshold code, and I need to replace it stat - registration expires in 2 weeks and needs to pass inspection here prior to or I'll get hit with all sorts of fines.
Need a reputable inexpensive fabricator/exhaust/muffler shop in the NYC area who can replace existing cat or both cats with generic/magnaflow etc. QUICKLY. Retain existing sensors of course
Ideally someone who can also do the 2 drive cycles and take care of the inspection as well.
Any recommendations?
(federal emissions warranty is on the original cats only to my knowledge (or all cats within a 10 year period from new so I don't think a dealer can help)
Thanks and hope everyone is well.
any authorized Magnaflow dealer should be able to get you one:
https://www.magnaflow.com/catalytic-...deral/products
P.S. I bought mine from HOTTEXHAUST.COM.....make sure you ask for a 10% discount coupon for each
DIRECT BOLT ON, PLUG-AND-PLAY, no fabwork or welding needed at all. Yes, also have bungs for sensors. NOTE: 5 yr/50K mile warranty valid only if done by a shop (will need to mail warranty card + sales receipt for cats)
