I just changed mine at 185k. Mostly to see if it would help my dismal mpg. It seemed fine. Just a touch gummed up from new.

I ended up getting one of the old o2 sensor spacers. Strangely after I put it in the CEL/MIL light went out but my scanner was still reading a P0420 code. So, reset it, changed the oil (with some Castrol GTX that actually said it was catalytic converter friendly in some way), changed the air filter,...

Thanks. I think I'm going to suck it up, get an OEM bolt on from the dealer and just do it myself.

Aftermarket California Cats? Where to buy?

So, I have the dreaded P0420 code. 2005 SE, 160k mi. I need a new cat to pass smog here in California.

I cannot for the life of me find an aftermarket cat to buy. The stealership here wants $709.

Any suggestions!!? Thanks.

mine too

Same thing happened to my 05 dark blue (forget color name). Completely bubbled and flaked off in the rain gutters, the front right panel channel and both pillars and a little on the leading edge of the hood. Really disappointed with the quality. I got a custom spray paint can/ clear coat and with a ...

Thanks!

Yeah, 1 inch taller and .5 in wider is probably not enough difference to justify the change.

16" SE wheels vs 17" LE Wheels?

Can people help me out with the pros and cons of the 05' 16 inch SE wheels vs the 17 inch LE wheels?

How much better are they?

Better handling with the lower side wall? Also i know the LE wheels are an inch wider as well so, more grip? Lower rolling resistance with the 17's too?

tks
