How about the cat in the back? Are you planning to change that also? My Sienna has a P0420 code which is the rear cat. I don't know how to change that.
I didn't, my front cat hadn't come apart yet if yours needs to be replaced they sell that one also but it might not be available on ebay. Try checking rock auto or another online parts house for it.
Happened to come across this video after just having the whole exhaust installed off of parts found on Amazon. I have that specific catalytic converter but other parts area mix since not everything was readily available. Everything came to around $1k which is inexpensive for a whole exhaust, clamps, hangers, and sensors. Probably saved about $3,000 at least. I didn’t want to put anything too expensive in it because it’s almost 20 years old. The car is now running like a champ so far. How is yours holding up a year later?
@@justinbrand6585 great to hear. I don't expect any miracles but the cost of parts these days are ridiculous, esepcially if it's from a supplier to a mechanic. The exhaust wasn't any easy job because I don't have a lift and it's New England (also no garage.) Luckilyy I have a mechanic that agreed to putting it in otherwise the car would've been sold for scrap. I just made sure I had everything including new oxygen sensors and all of it was Direct to Fit. I don't think the exhaust on these are not something you can tackle with ramps or jack stands.
I have two of them one I did all the supporting stuff too is fine the other I just slapped a cat on and it keeps throwing cat codes. I'm going to do the tune up and pcv and see if that fixes it.
@@justinbrand6585 what other “supporting stuff” are you talking about? Replacing PCV Valve? O2 sensors? This video is very helpful and the only one about this cat on my van. Thanks Justin!
I was told that there are actually four cats on the van, is this true? I have read that there are only two. I get different answers from all over the place! I have codes for bank one and two and i cant seem to get them to clean enough to get it smogged!
@@justinbrand6585 thank you! Im getting 430 and 420 on both banks one and two. Would i get a code for the third bank too, or is that one still good and i only have to change bank one and two? And do you know where i can get the cheapest california legal cats that are an exact fit? I have searched the internet for HOURSSSS and all of them are super expensive!! HELP!

Great video...how much did it cost you the catalytic converter?

Thanks for the video. Do you have a Amazon part number? Also as an update how does it run with the new cat or did it clear any check engine light?
So far the check engine light is still off and it runs just fine. The one I ordered was the AUTOSAVER88 "brand" on Amazon
@@justinbrand6585 I'm going to buy one of those myself. Better than buying an OEM converter and spending hundreds.
Is that cheaper Amazon car still running good currently?
was a good choice? which brand you buy can you send me the link

I actually sold the one in the video but we have another one that we had longer than that one with the same cat and it is doing fine.

Thanks for this one 😁
No problem!
Nice video. How has the new cat held up so far?

@@justinbrand6585 Sometime it is super sensitive on if it is not the OEM Cats. People still get codes even after swapping it with an aftermarket cat.
@@CJ-fh5xq yes I know that, I appreciate the info though

There are three, two manifold cats and a post cat
