catalytic converters

In a vehicle, the catalytic converter can only function perfectly for a long period of time when the fuel system is operating to automakers' specifications.

Even the smallest failure in the complete combustion chain greatly shortens the life cycle of the converter.

Minimum checklist:

• Check and/or renew the oil filter
• Check and/or renew the air filter
• Check and/or renew receipts
• check engine management
• Check Turbo
• Check LPG installation (where applicable)
• Check oil consumption
• Check coolant consumption
• Check for cylinder head gasket leak
• Check the exhaust gas mixture
• Check the quality and capacity of the (pre-) catalytic converter
• Check all sensors (lambda sensors)
• Check EGR valves and system

Also, test the following:

• injectors
• Compression
• starter and battery
• Emission control
