Yes, a bad catalytic converter can cause a loss of power when going uphill. A clogged or damaged catalytic converter restricts exhaust flow, leading to increased back pressure in the engine. This can result in reduced engine performance and acceleration, particularly noticeable when the vehicle is under heavy load, such as climbing a hill. If you suspect issues with your catalytic converter, it's advisable to have it inspected and repaired promptly.
