Magnaflow 11-17 Volkswagen Touareg 3.6L Direct Fit Converter

When it's time to replace the catalytic converter on your 2011-2017 Volkswagen Touareg with the 3.6L engine, Magnaflow's California Grade CARB Compliant Direct-Fit Converter is a solid option. This unit is designed to help keep your check engine light off and ensure your vehicle meets emissions standards, especially in California and other CARB-restricted states. You'll get the converter itself, along with essential gaskets and hardware needed for installation, making the job straightforward.

Magnaflow builds this converter using high-strength 16-gauge 409 stainless steel tubing for excellent corrosion resistance and a long service life. The tubing is mandrel-bent to maintain factory flow dynamics, so you won't lose performance or fuel efficiency. They use durable 308 stainless steel MIG welds and a single laser fusion weld that replicates the OE design, which significantly reduces the chance of leaks. The compact, low-mass design also contributes to better thermal efficiency. Plus, it comes with Torca AccuSeal® exhaust clamps that apply even pressure all around, preventing pipe distortion, and OE-sized barbed exhaust hangers made from corrosion-resistant 410 stainless steel to help cut down on noise and vibration.

Because this is a direct-fit unit, it's designed to install without any cutting or welding, simplifying the process for DIYers. Magnaflow uses advanced 3D scanning during their research and development to ensure the part fits and functions just like the original equipment. This converter has undergone extra testing to meet CARB guidelines, so you can be confident it's compliant for use in California and other restricted states.
