The internals of my catalytic converter have melted down after a few months of it being installed on my vehicle. Was my converter faulty from the factory?
No. Converter meltdown is primarily contributed to an engine misfire. The unused air and fuel resulting from an engine misfire will cause an intense fire inside the catalytic converter damaging it internally. Normal operating temperatures of a converter are 500-800° F, and up to 1200° F when the vehicle is under heavy load. To melt the catalytic converter's substrate, the temperature inside the converter would have to exceed 2000° F.
Will replacing my converter with a new one eliminates the P0420/P0430 code from coming on?
There is no guarantee that replacing the converter will keep a fault code from coming back. If an engine performance issues exist, and it has not been repaired, the P0420/P0430 fault code may recur.
Why did my converter fail?
Typically, converter failures fall in to one of the following categories:
Why is my "Check Engine" or "MIL" light indicating that I have a "P0420 "Low Converter Efficiency" code; does this mean the converter needs to be replaced?
A P0420 low efficiency code does not always indicate that the converter needs to be replaced. On newer vehicles a low efficiency code will can occur if the exhaust feed gases are not of the proper balanced to allow the converter to operate efficiently. An experienced emissions technician may be able to identify and resolve this concern with a scan tool, the most effective way for most technicians to diagnose this condition is using a 5-gas analyzer.
Are there any steps my technician can take to prevent my new converter from failing prematurely?
Yes,
How do I determine if I have a California emissions vehicle?
To determine if a vehicle has California emissions, check the emissions sticker on the vehicle, which is in the engine compartment. If the sticker states the vehicle meets California requirements, then the vehicle is equipped with California emissions. Click Here for Engine Family Number Information.
Is there a dimensional difference between a 49-state legal converter which shows Federal or California options?
Vehicles licensed outside of California, but built to California emissions standards, may have a physical difference from a vehicle built to Federal emissions standards. (If your vehicle is manufactured to California emissions standards, it cannot use a converter that is cataloged as Federal only). You need to reference your vehicles emissions sticker before purchasing a Walker converter. A vehicle licensed in the State of California must use a CARB approved converter.
