Awful :/
Can you somehow fit a cheap universal Cat so they can get another year or two out of the car?

The problem with a repair is:
An aftermarket CAT (which is what an insurer will spec).
Might not keep the MIL light off for ever!
These Honda's have a good CAT on them from the factory - with plenty of "noble metal content in them". Thats the reason they get knicked.

Fit a lambda spacer to the post cat 02 sensor and that should well keep the light off if ups P0420 that you suspect will come up. |
