I'm guessing that the thing you mean is "catalytic converter." This is an exhaust system component that converts hazardous gases like CO to CO2 and water.
If you're hearing a lot of noise, I would take it back to the mechanic to have it checked out.

I had my Husband follow me to the mechanic and after i parked my car i saw my pipe hanging!!Chat Icon it was dragging when i was driving, I think it is the excaust, I hope i dont get charged because my car shouldn't have had a problem again!

Re: My car is a piece of junk

Is it still at the mechanic?

I had my car fixed & they welded around tha catalytic converter. @ weeks later I heard a noise that was very loud and even louder when I accellerated--it was like a rattling.

Turns out it was the heat shield, they took it off and it was as good as new! I was dreading a 500 dollar bill!

Hope its nothing major!Chat Icon
