What it is and how it works:
The catalytic converter is a crucial part of the exhaust system, located between the engine and muffler. It uses chemical reactions to convert harmful gases (CO, NOx, HC) into safer substances like CO₂, H₂O, and N₂ — reducing environmental pollution and ensuring legal compliance.
Main functions of the catalytic converter:
Reduces toxic emissions
Supports proper engine performance
Works with oxygen (lambda) sensors to optimize combustion
What happens if it malfunctions:
Rotten egg smell from the exhaust
Reduced engine power and sluggish acceleration
Increased fuel consumption
“Check Engine” light turns on
Fails emissions testing or technical inspection
Contributes to air pollution
