AP Exhaust Catalytic Converter,Catalytic Converter-Direct Fit P/N:642150
Replace a failed or worn-out catalytic converter with the AP Exhaust Catalytic Converter 643044, a Federal / EPA direct-fit converter that drops into the factory location on the 2004-2009 Toyota Prius [L4-1.5L]. A catalytic converter uses a coated substrate to convert harmful exhaust gases into less harmful output as they pass through — this unit is built to OE dimensions and fitment for the listed application.
This is a Federal / EPA converter and is not CARB certified, so it is not legal for sale or use in California, New York, or other states requiring CARB-compliant replacement converters. Signs a converter may need replacing include a lit check-engine light with a catalyst-efficiency code, a rattling internal substrate, or a rotten-egg exhaust smell — diagnose the cause before replacing. Country of origin: United States.
