shine a flashlight inside or hold it up to light to see if there is a honeycomb inside. if there is no honeycomb inside, it contains no platinum.
Upstream would be before the catalytic converter. Downstream would be after the catalytic converter.
tap on it and if it rattles ,its done
replace sensor,catalytic converters smell like rotten eggs when going bad
Oxygen sensors go in the exhaust pipes. There should be one before the catalytic converter and one after so that the computer can tell how well the catalytic converter is working.
YES ! as soon as the engine was started , you would notice how noisy it was The catalytic converter(s) are in the exhaust system before the muffler , and removing the catalytic convertor just leaves an open exhaust pipe - extremely loud
i think it's something like 3-5 years. if not have a look on the website u got the catalytic car from and that should tell you.
Platinum Metal is in the Catalitic converter

Well, honey, you can determine the value of a used catalytic converter for scrap by considering factors like the current market price of precious metals like platinum, palladium, and rhodium, as well as the condition and type of the converter. You can also reach out to local scrap yards or online buyers to get quotes and compare offers. Just remember, the value can vary, so don't get your hopes up too high!
Yes, It will tell you bank 1 or 2 then sensor 1 or 2 ...Bank 1 is the exhaust pipe coming from the side of the engine with cylinder 1. Sensor 1 is before the catalytic converter, and sensor 2 is after the catalytic converter.
Loss of power, poor fuel mileage, converter gets red hot, possibly check engine light will come on.
You have poorn gas milage and when you step on the pedal your car has no power. You can tell mainly by it not having enough power
