Why Lexington drivers book mobile catalytic converter replacement
Lexington is barbecue country on I-85, east of Salisbury. It's at the edge of our hour, and we still make the run. That's exactly the situation mobile fuel & exhaust work solves: the mechanic comes to the vehicle, so a car that shouldn't be driven doesn't have to be.
What's included
Catalytic converters fail from age, from misfires that overheat them, or they get stolen in a parking lot with a cordless saw. Before we replace one for a P0420 code we verify the sensors and check for the root cause, because a converter is expensive and a new one dies the same way if the misfire isn't fixed. We install direct-fit, EPA-compliant units.
- Verify the failure with sensor data and a backpressure test
- Fix the root cause — misfire, oil consumption, or coolant leak
- Replace the converter with a direct-fit, EPA-compliant unit
- Replace O2 sensors if damaged
- Clear codes and drive to set readiness monitors
Signs it's time
- P0420 or P0430 code that persists after sensor checks
- Rotten-egg smell
- Loss of power and rattling under the car (broken substrate)
- Converter was cut off and stolen
