How do I know if I need to fix the catalytic converter on my Dodge Durango?
My Dodge Durango started acting up recently, and there’s a bad smell coming from the exhaust. Is there a problem with my catalytic converter? How do I know if I need to get it fixed?
. A smell like rotting eggs or sulfur is one of the signs that there might be a problem with your Durango’s catalytic converter. Here are some other indicators to watch out for:
Sluggish engine performance
Reduced acceleration
Dark exhaust smoke
Excessive heat under the car
If you notice any of these signs, you need to have a mechanic check your car. While the likely culprit is your catalytic converter, you might have issues somewhere else in the exhaust system, so a professional diagnosis is important.
If you need to have your exhaust system repaired, you can save some money by getting quotes from several repair shops.
