The ultimate thread about catalytic converters replacement
Hello everybody,
I'd like to wrap-up the cats replacement threads for all those like me that are getting trouble codes and cannot have the ECU re-flashed. From all those that replaced their A6's cats, I'd like to hear your stories, with a final word. In fact, most of older threads do not have a "the end", so they leave others without a clear picture of what's best to do. Do you suggest genuine, aftermarket or universal (non direct fit) cats? How much did you spend? Most importantly, did you solve the CEL problem for good? Thanks |
An "ultimate thread" should answer questions, not ask them.

Now, for his question. What kind of Cats are you using? I was looking at racing cats for my car, I was wondering if you had racing Cats on your car, maybe thats why its giving you codes. I don't want codes, thats why I'm asking. |

That way, this will become the ultimate thread about the cat replacement on A6s. Do you grasp the concept? If you have nothing to say about it, just disregard this thread. Thanks. |

Why did you even answer his thread if you wasn't going to answer the thread! You just added useless space to the thread, making it longer then it has to be!

Here is my 2 cents... It also depends on which state you live in.

The cats are good and just the Audi ECU specs too narrow for check engine light on, check out www.bigdaddiesgarage.com

The O2 sensor minicat could work, but I'm afraid that there's a lot of work to remove the O2 and install the O2 w/minicat... |
You only need it for the post cat O2 sensor(s), not the pre-cat ones.
30 mins they'll send you on your way if installed by indy garage. Space is good enough for 2002 A6. |
