Description of the problem | Was driving home from work, stopped at a light then proceeded to go and vehicle had little to no power. Rpm's wouldn't go above about 2500 and would then bog down and almost die. Diagnosed with failed catalytic converter at 66k miles. If it was clogging up, we should have seen decreased performance at some point. This isn't something that should just happen all of a sudden. |
