So i've got the car back from the Stealership for $40 bucks labor lol...anyways they put it on the lift and showed me how my Cat sounded like pennies in a glass jar! They say I need a new cat and new resinator ( which runs the rest of the exhaust all the way to the mufflers too )...anyways $1600 in parts alone!!! F-that... new cat at autozone is $250...

another sad thing is the cat warrenty is 8years/80k miles, I have 89K

Big question here...does the resinator really need to be replaced? I mean is that a problem? I can't see it being an issue, even if the cat did shred...

thanks guys...
