Catalytic converters reduce harmful emissions. They contain a honeycomb structure that alters pollutants. Damage can occur from temperature changes or impacts, leading to reduced engine performance and warning lights. Regular inspections help detect issues early.

Catalytic converters, crucial for reducing vehicle emissions, contain a honeycomb structure coated with a catalyst like platinum. As exhaust gases pass through, the catalyst converts harmful pollutants into less harmful emissions. The converter operates at high temperatures, and sudden cooling, such as from water splashes, can crack the internal structure. Additionally, impacts from road debris can cause damage. Symptoms of a damaged converter include reduced engine performance, rattling sounds, and the Check Engine Light. Regular inspections help maintain the converter's efficiency and prevent costly repairs.
