The Catalytic Converter on your Nissan is an essential component to the exhaust system. The Catalytic Converter controls emissions by filtering out and reducing toxic gases and pollutants from the exhaust. Without a working Catalytic Converter, toxic fumes from the internal engine combustion process could emit harmful gases through the exhaust into the environment. Help ensure your Nissan has an optimal exhaust system by ordering a new Catalytic Converter from genuine Nissan Parts.
If your Nissan has an old or worn out Catalytic Converter, you might notice some symptoms, such as excessive heat coming from underneath your Nissan, reduced engine performance or acceleration, darker exhaust smoke, or a sulfuric or rotten egg smell from your exhaust.
Additionally, an issue with the Catalytic Converter in your Nissan can trigger your vehicle's check engine light. However, the check engine light doesn't necessarily mean there's a problem with the Catalytic Converter. If your Nissan is showing the check engine light, scan the vehicle's onboard computer for error codes to determine the source of the check engine light. Your nearest authorized Nissan service center can help.
Your Nissan's Catalytic Converter can wear out over time. It can get clogged or pieces within the Catalytic Converter can detach and cause a rattling sound inside the converter while you drive. Other issues on your vehicle may cause the Catalytic Converter to wear out as well. These problems can include the engine running too lean and causing the catalytic converter to run hot, or burning oil in your engine. Make sure you rule out other potential issues for a bad Catalytic Converter before replacing it.
If you think your Nissan's Catalytic Converter isn't lasting as long as it should, visit your closest authorized Nissan service center for a vehicle inspection. Purchase a new, genuine Catalytic Converter from Nissan Parts and have a professional Nissan technician install it.
