To change the catalytic converter on a Saturn Ion Red Line, start by safely lifting the vehicle and securing it on jack stands. Disconnect the battery, then remove any heat shields and exhaust components connected to the catalytic converter using appropriate tools. Unbolt the old catalytic converter from the exhaust system and replace it with the new one, ensuring all gaskets are properly seated. Finally, reassemble the exhaust components, reconnect the battery, and start the vehicle to check for leaks.

The BMW 530i typically has two catalytic converters. One is located in the exhaust system close to the engine (the pre-catalytic converter), and the other is further down the exhaust system (the main catalytic converter). This setup helps to ensure effective emissions control in line with environmental regulations. Always check the specific model year and engine type, as configurations may vary.
