Did he just remove the rear cat and put the old one back on???

[@lambition]

I just replaced mine following this video, but I could not get the cat out the same way as in the video. I had to remove heat shield on cat while it is laying between CV shaft and tie rod. Removing heat shield for rack and pinion boot also helps. Removing air fuel mixture sensor on top first will also help with maneuver. If you have oxygen sensor wrench, it is easy to remove and install with cat installed on the engine. Honda's service manual says intermediate shaft from transmission to left axle needs to be removed, which also requires removing CV axle and ball joint. I did not want to go that far, but this video encouraged me to try different route.

Thank you. You saved my day. Now i just gotta get to it. Right after my cup of coffee.

[@duanechaney5465]

If you look at time 16:19 to 16:28, you will see the new cat he is showing does NOT have the mounting points for the heatshield to the catalytic converter like the original. The heat shield is needed.

[@steverome5853]

Do you have a video to remove & replace the rear motor mount on 2011 Pilot EX?

[@michaelcuello2508]

Is this bank 1 or bank 2 ?

[@ronoldivalencia5117]

the only TRQ done it nice

[@AndyIsHandy]

I am wondering why this is considered the 'rear' catalytic converter?

[@jwm6314]

Good tip on dealing with rusted original hw

[@coryelliott764]

How did you get that heat shield out?? Twist-twist-bada-bing ain't workin.

[@TheAbrunqaj]

can the Catalytic Converter go bad and not throw a cat code but cause misfires instead ?

[@boostedbeezytvz318]

how come the bottom bolts on my cart are almost impossible to access beacause of the shield mopunting fins but u have a straight shot at yours???

[@joshuapeterson9088]

Do you have a video for a 2007 Honda Pilot?

[@nestorfabiancordobavictori4586]

[@stefanvanbraam4378]

[@porfiriomazariegos9977]

[@jmg36344]

Is there a gasket that goes into the lower part of the catalytic converter.

[@degvello21]

It's definitely very helpful video .. but .. is it only me or it's old rusted and completely shot flex pipe portion was just bolted back on?

[@juanfulgencio6142]

Do you happen to know the part number for the cross brave bolts

[@prominentsolutions3560]

I'd use new nuts and coat all the threads with anti-seize high temp.

[@TRQ]

+@prominentsolutions3560 Thanks for the tip! We'll pass this info along to our production team. 1aau.to/m/Shop-TRQ

[@MegaRedstoneMaster]

Is this bank 1 or 2?

[@GTFOofHERE]

Your videos are great

[@royquesada5295]

Sequence back in seemed wrong on the shield??

[@charminbaer2323]

I have a check engine light for bank 1 that goes away, especially when i use Cataclean and will run great for long periods of time. My light has recently come back on and show Bank 1 sensor. I'm gonna try replacing the sensors for now, but i'm afraid i'm gonna need a new catalytic converter eventually but can't seem to find any. Hondapartsnow, Rockauto, none of them seem to carry CARB legal cats. So where the hell am I supposed to buy a replacement?? All the ones on. eBay and Amazon are not CA/CARB legal. What is so different from CARB and non-CARB converters that makes them so much more expensive???

[@anthonyderas5501]

How much that job cost

[@gofishinginternational1865]

that is not the rear, that is the front cat
