>>hi everyone another one of my customers had the misfortune of having his catalyst with os sensor stolen and want's me to fit an after market one. Honda want �900 for it. so again the same dilemma which make to use that will not bring the engine light on after a few miles. what has been your experience with after market catalysts and os sensors ? <<
Wouldn't this be covered by the owners insurance?
This option can often be overlooked.
Personally I would rather sweep the floor than mess around with after market catalysts.
However I did once offer a customer (on the bones of their arse) the option to have a Walker cat fitted to their 2005 Fiesta.
I did it with the proviso that if it failed, then the cost of the cat would be considered for warranty, but the labour content would not. I explained clearly that I have little faith in the quality of these components, but would continue with the repair so long as they agreed to my terms.
I have to say that the cat is still performing 14 months later.
It is rare that I expose myself to a customer in this way though (liability wise you understand! )
