Default Blown Cat

Hi Team

My cat converter is making a terrible rattling noise, and the fuel efficiency of the vehicle has gone to **** and is going through fuel incredibly quick. Will simply removing the cat fix the allow the fuel economy enough to at least be driven?

Yes, AU won’t trip any fault codes as it has no post-cat sensor. Good to go.

Please be safety aware with respect to carbon monoxide poisoning risk, this used to kill quite a lot of people.
