Anyone know of a place in San Diego where I can pick one up for a reasonable price for a 2000 VR6 Jetta? TIA, Manny

Failed smog due to failing cat :(

there you go ...

i think your best bet is hitting up muffler shops ... they usually have cats there

well, if all else fails, manny, i have my cats from my a4 (two of em)...should fit no problem (with a lil welding)...they were taken out in favor of higher-flowing cats...but still are good.

I just got back from American Muffler and he told me that they cant and no other muffler shop will touch a cat on 99 and up VW's. Calling Miramar now to see if they will replace it under warranty.......... :corn:

The dealership will charge an arm and a leg for a Cat if it isn't under warranty. You might still be covered under the 70k State of California Emissions warranty though
