Product Details

If your check engine light is on and you suspect a bad catalytic converter, this MagnaFlow Direct-Fit Catalytic Converter (part number 22960) is a solid replacement for your 1997-2006 Audi A4 or 2000-2005 Volkswagen Passat with the 1.8L turbocharged engine. You get the converter itself, along with the necessary gaskets and hardware to ensure a leak-free seal without needing to reuse old, corroded factory parts. This converter is designed to meet or exceed Federal emissions requirements set by the EPA, making it compliant for OBDII Federally registered vehicles.

MagnaFlow builds this converter with a durable, corrosion-resistant stainless steel body and free-flowing mandrel-bent tubing. The OE-style spun body design, combined with a single laser fusion weld, significantly reduces the chance of leaks. Its compact, low-mass construction also helps with thermal efficiency. MagnaFlow uses advanced 3D scanning during their research and development to ensure this part fits and functions just like the original equipment, simplifying installation as it's designed as a direct bolt-on replacement with no cutting or welding required.
