Audi A5 Sportback

Catalytic converters have their origins in the past century when the automotive industry was not yet so developed, and the issues of environmental cleanliness were already of concern to many people. Today every car is equipped with exhaust cleaning systems according to the standards from Euro-3 to Euro-6. With the growth of the standard, the degree of purification increases, however, the average life of the catalyst is calculated in the mileage of the car and varies on average from 100 to 200 thousand kilometers depending on the quality of fuel and operation of the vehicle. But even a used catalytic converter has its value, so do not be in a hurry to get rid of them. Today we explain its value and what to do with it.

Catalytic converter value

To understand the value of the used catalyst it is necessary to understand its components. The metal-coated catalyst is a core made in the form of a honeycomb. A catalytic layer including precious metals such as Palladium Platinum and Rhodium is applied to the honeycomb. These platinum group elements serve to accelerate redox processes at high temperatures and convert harmful exhaust into harmless water and carbon dioxide. These precious metals are where the used catalyst value lies.

Catalytic converter price

Car manufacturers are not involved in the final price regulation of catalytic converters. This is because most often they use third-party manufacturers who specialize in making the catalytic converters (catalysts) themselves.

Many people also think that the price of used catalytic converters can be influenced by the power or make of the car, but this is not the case. To establish the price of the used catalytic converter for sale, you can look up this information on the AutoCatalystMarket website in the Manufacturers section or by entering the serial number of your catalytic converter in the search box where you can also find the Audi A5 Sportback.
