thank you for not making it 12 min video by actually showing jacking up the car ,putting jack stand under car and bunch of unnecessary talk,straight to the point,also if I were you I would 've used new stainless steel bolt, and some anti seize on bolts,great video,

Awesome video! Great job! I'm doing this today! Got a quote for replacing catalytic converter, valve cover, gasket and air filter from local shop. They told me 1060 plus 130 diagnostic test. I told them to park it outside. Spent 140 online for the parts and of course I have to do the work but it's well worth it!

Very helpful video. Clearly explained. Organized. Well-edited. I'm about to to do change the one for my '02 Accord.

A little trick for the bolts. Turn the nut upside down and screw about halfway onto bolt. Then strike the nut surface with the hammer. No risk of damaging threads this way. Cheers.

i don''t need to replace my catalytic converter , but after watching this I going to do it anyway ! Thanks RACEX

Nice vid. Clear, easy to hear, reasonably easy to see, and straight to the point. Couple of things: 1) I've seen someone else do this and they found that the bolts were soldered or tack-welded to the cat flanges, so you're lucky they came loose as readily as they did. I might've suggested screwing the nuts onto the ends of the bolts to protect the threads from being deformed by the hammer. 2) I'd advise putting a very small amount of anti-sieze compound on the O2 sensor threads (careful not to get any on the business end of the sensor!) so it doesn't corrode into place.

I forgot you can just un plug the sensor from under the car while replacing the converter. Mine is burnt out, it used to make the rattle noises but the burnt up honey comb had fallin out the exhaust muffler after i shaked it out. You made this eaiser than i thought, im ordering a new one so i can just do it knowing itll be easy, its a 02 Coupeccord lmao. Thanks bro

Replacing that small piece can save your entire engine from messing up!. Word to the wise😅

I might need to replace my cat soon on my 2005 Honda Accord (it's throwing a p0420 code) and watching this video made me way more confident that I can do it myself. Love when I can do things myself and not pay someone 300-plus dollars just for labor and then more for parts. now I just got to figure out if the problem is my O2 sensors or my cat. Thanks!

awesome video man. I'm just about to do this and you're guide was on point! Thanks!

Nick you are a lifesaver thanks for the vid! its going to save me tons of Skrilla!!!👊🏾

Great job, you answered all my questions. Thanks.

Made it look real easy! Nice video

thank you for the video made it look easy.

use a rubber mallet to hit the bolts out or block of wood and then use a hammer. If you graze the threads, the bolts will be useless. Awesome vid

Great video.you really make it look easy So easy, I'm going to try it myself.Tell me BEFORE I get started all tools wrenches & sizes.☺Thanks in advance

Ty bro u made it so easy for me to do...

very educating. thanks for the video!

Hey man you did a great job

Must be nice having little to no rust to deal with...

amazing vid, thanks man.

YMMV but I like to use a little bit of antiseize compound. Nice video.

Great video my guy!!

Ordered one yesterday. Should be here on friday or saturday

How is the catalytic converter from eBay works for you? Does it give you any problems in the last couple years. Thank you for the tutorial. Great video. Much appreciated!

Great Video

Does it matter if the catalytic converter i bought has the sensor in the middle instead of in the back of it like the one that is in my car? I have a 2000 honda accord.

Did this work and did you have to have a special tool to unhook the O2 sensor?

Thanks man

alright thank you appreciate it

Is there more than one 02 sensor to remove before you unbolt the plates

Great video, dude. Did you reuse the old bolts or did you get new ones from Honda and if so, how many did you need? I'm assuming six in all.

great video thanks a lot man..question brother can I use the same method forhonda accord ex 1999

What's up with these wide price ranges? Could I get the ones not legal in CA, and still pass emissions on my ULEM accord?

Did you not put the heat shield back on? I have a light on for bank 1 and bank 2. I didn’t know how simple it would be to replace it myself until I saw your video. Thanks!

How's it holding up till this day?

Thanks for the video very helpful. Was the catalytic converter california certified?

did you use the old gaskets? I'm about to do this replacement but the new on I ordered from ebay didn't come with gaskets..

Can anyone tell help me which catalytic converter fits in honda accord euro 2011 model. I am new to this thing but want to change myself buying from ebay.

at the 2:00 min mark, what is that other thing on the same exhaust path? It is nearer the front than the CC. I am not able to remove the nuts, as they are rusted on, and try to strip when I use wrench or sockets. Was thinking I might cut the pipe before and after the CC, remove and use a grinder to get rid of the old nuts and bolts, then use an adapter on both ends to reinstall the ends with the 3 holes for bolting on the CC. Any suggestions? Does that part at 2:00 also need replacing? TIA

Did you replace the 02 sensor ?

The new catalytic converter last long? I got a part from Amazon for my minivan and lasted 3 month only

Where did you get the cat?

I have a 99 accord. My cat is rattling but no loss of power, not throwing codes. I don't want to spend a thousand dollars to replace it. Has an aftermarket cat been good for you? We're you throwing codes? Great video!

Is this method the same on a 2007 Accord?

Auto zone was charging me $1000 for the part, but online I could get it for $80-$120? Is there a difference?

How well has that 3rd party cat held in the last 7 years?

How long are the bolts?

Funny, I have a 2001 Accord too! It just turned 190,000 miles last week and almost right away the cat started rattling when I let off the gas and when idling, so it's being replaced now. How many miles was yours?

Will this keep my check engine light off?

Is there a light that's going to come onto the dashboard because I just bought my Honda accord and the guy said that it's going to have to be replaced. I don't want to spend like a $100 or so on something I didn't even need. Thanks for any helpful response, see ya

this is a stupid question but is there directionality to catalytic converters? how did you know which direction to mount The new one?

hellooo☺ i have a question this is the same for a honda accord 2007? thanks

will a flowmaster or magnaflow catalytic change the way it sound?

Is this a 4 cylinder or V6?

Hi is 6 cylinder?

Where is the catalytic converter located

Is this the same method for a 1998 Honda Accord DX 4 cyl?

is there a way to just empty out the old one so it doesnt rattle?

Does the oxygen sensor need to be replaced too?

Where can I find it

or are they all the same for anycar

Are you selling this Honda Accord?

Wow. Got really lucky getting those nuts off. Mine is so rusted that the sensor won't even come off.

Is this the fix for code P0240 on 04 Accord sedan?

How do you know if you need to replace it?

That 02 sensor you put back, is that the upstream or downstream 02 Sensor?

fuckin good video

4:05 either this is wrong or the european version is different, but you should be using a gasket ring instead of this one for this car according to the replacement drawings im no mechanic tho

No way them nuts came off that easy🤨

what website did u find the catalytic converter

will this method work on a 98 honda accord?

Hey nick (or anyone else who knows the answer), I have an 2001 accord coupe 4cyl standard transmission. Would this be the same for my car? Also, I live in California... do they sell cats for California regulations at the price you got yours?

is this the same as an 03 ex?

Was your car burning a lot of gas

Were you loosing power because of this?

Why in the hell does this cost $1000 on some cars?

why does it need replacement or why was yours needed replacement

My hole is on the left side.. muffler shop did me wrong

My heat shield fell off

I called Honda and the catalytic converter it's only $1,900 😆 Lol 🤣 but it's discontinued

I never seen a cat that cheap $100 Here in California $1000 is the cheapest For Honda,and they will steal it for precious metals inside the cat. 49 states cat is probably no precious metals in it so the pollution is high.The the carbons reactts to those metals turn it to carbon dioxide.

Some fool cut my flanges off

lol someone stole mine off my car

Someone stole mine looking to see if I can do it myself
