Excellent Automotive Improvement!

As an automotive enthusiast, replacing old exhaust components is an essential task. After installing the "Walker" Ultra Direct Converter, we were impressed with how much it improved our car's emissions. Based on our own experience, this product is straightforward to install and made a noticeable difference in our car's performance. The only potential downside is that this product is slightly expensive compared to other replacement parts. Overall, we highly recommend the "Walker" Ultra Direct…

Pros
  • Efficiently converts 12-volt power to 120-volt alternating current
Cons
  • Produces a loud humming noise during operation

PURCHASED TO REPLACE A POOR TRANSDUCER, REPEAT CODE P0420 AFTER 1 MONTH.

Product fits and assembles as described. However, the functionality of the product leaves a lot to be desired. When replacing, new lambda sensors from GM installed, as well as a converter. Code P0420 (catalytic efficiency) keeps popping up. Poor quality of internal parts.

Pros
  • Automotive
Cons
  • Faulty

The catalytic converter does not work with 2015 Chevy Cruze 1.4L Turbo

Initially the product seemed to fit the car as I installed it professionally. A day later the check engine light came on again. We made a few trips to the shop before taking it to the dealer to find out that the catalytic converter is not compatible with the 2015 Cruze 1.4L and must be purchased from the original factory. Although it costs more money from the factory, it's the only thing that turns off the check engine light for this problem.

Pros
  • Replacement Parts
Cons
  • Upgradeable
