Questions & answers

Catalytic Converters & ABS FAQs

Common symptoms are a lit check-engine light (often code P0420), a rotten-egg / sulfur smell, sluggish acceleration, poor fuel economy, a rattling noise underneath, or failing your Texas emissions test. A clogged converter chokes the engine and gets worse if ignored.
A P0420 "catalyst efficiency below threshold" code means the converter is no longer cleaning exhaust effectively — sometimes from age, sometimes from an upstream problem like a bad oxygen sensor or misfire. We diagnose the real cause so you don’t replace an expensive converter unnecessarily.
ABS (anti-lock braking) keeps your wheels from locking up in a hard or wet-road stop — vital on rain-slick Houston freeways. An ABS light usually means a faulty wheel-speed sensor, a module fault, or low brake fluid; we scan the ABS system to pinpoint it.
Your regular brakes still work, but the anti-lock and often traction-control features are disabled, so stopping on wet or loose surfaces is riskier. Have it checked promptly — we can read ABS-specific codes most parts stores can’t.
Yes — tampering with a catalytic converter is a federal and Texas violation and will fail your state inspection. We only install compliant, properly functioning converters that keep you legal and on the road.
Yes — qualifying catalytic converter and ABS repairs carry our 2-year / 24,000-mile nationwide warranty on parts and labor, with Affirm and Sunbit financing available for larger jobs.
