Recommended Posts

Hi bros,

Bought a 2nd hand car, detected catalytic converter has been cut and welded at STA. Dealer said he will fit back original exhaust for me to pass LTA inspection.

What should I do? STA mechanic mentioned in order to pass, they must not see any signs of welding..

Ask dealer to fit back original exhaust plus cat converter then they send for inspection. What car did you buy? Sounds like car was previously de catted.  Dunno why LTA so anal about welding on exhaust parts.🙄🙄
