Product Details

Magnaflow is known for making well-built exhaust components that perform well. This direct-fit catalytic converter, part number 50430, is designed to keep your 2001-2006 BMW X5 running cleanly and without triggering a check engine light. It's built to meet Federal emissions requirements, so you can be confident it's compliant for OBDII Federally registered vehicles.

This converter uses free-flowing, mandrel-bent tubing made from strong 16-gauge 409 stainless steel, which is highly resistant to corrosion and built for a long service life. Magnaflow uses advanced 3D scanning during their research and development to ensure this part fits just like the original equipment. The spun body design replicates the OE look and function, and a single laser fusion weld helps prevent leaks. Its compact, low-mass design also helps with thermal efficiency. Installation is made simpler because it's a direct-fit unit, meaning no cutting or welding is required, and it comes with the necessary gaskets and hardware to avoid reusing old, corroded factory parts.

This converter is designed to meet or exceed EPA emissions standards. It interchanges with several original equipment part numbers, including 18 40 7 514 498 and 18 40 7 507 347. Please note that this converter is not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California.
