2003-2007 Honda Accord 2.4L L4 | Rear Catalytic Converter | OE#18160RAAA11/16299 - PHILTOPI have often reviewed the various exhaust components that I have used in my "Frankenstein" exhaust system for my older model Range Rover. And this catalytic converter is just the latest addition to my creative exhaust solutions. I started to get several check engine codes related to exhaust, and after researching the various causes and solutions it became clear that a new catalytic converter was in order. Any Range Rover part usually means $$$. But the universal catalytic converter that I ordered fit in perfectly as my OEM replacement. To be fair I also needed to replace an oxygen sensor at the same time, however I am now running check engine code free and I'm not out a huge pile of cash.

2003-2007 Honda Accord 2.4L L4 | Rear Catalytic Converter | OE#18160RAAA11/16299 - PHILTOPFits as expected. Lines up perfectly for the gaskets. Got this to take care of an issue the dealership said was the reason my check engine light was one. Came with everything we needed for the install, except the tools of course. Check engine light is gone. Solid replacement item. Would recommend.

2003-2007 Honda Accord 2.4L L4 | Rear Catalytic Converter | OE#18160RAAA11/16299 - PHILTOPFive Stars: Excellent Build Quality and a Perfect Fix for the P0420 CodeIf you own a $2004$-$2008$ Acura TSX, you know how frustrating it is when the notorious P0420 code (Catalyst System Efficiency Below Threshold) pops up. After comparing prices for OEM parts, I decided to give this unit a shot, and I was genuinely impressed with the quality.The construction uses 409L stainless steel, which is significantly better than mild steel and should provide excellent longevity, especially when paired with the robust stainless steel welding. The laser-cut flanges were spot-on for a direct installation—it bolted right up to the existing manifold and mid-pipe without any bending or wrestling. They even included the gaskets and hardware, which saved me a trip to the parts store.Crucially, the unit uses a large-area honeycomb ceramic substrate (as shown in the diagram), which is key to achieving the necessary high efficiency. After the install, I cleared the code, and after several drive cycles, the Check Engine Light (CEL) has stayed off. My emissions monitors are running clean, and the car's engine note and responsiveness are back to normal. This is a solid, professional-grade solution that saved me hundreds over the dealership option.
JJust me.

2003-2007 Honda Accord 2.4L L4 | Rear Catalytic Converter | OE#18160RAAA11/16299 - PHILTOPThis is an excellent, high-quality catalytic converter. It's made of good parts and weighs a ton. I appreciate the honeycomb ceramic substrates. Oddly, it didn't come in the box pictured in the product images. It came in a boring unmarked cardboard box. But it's still great.
