V6 2.5 Catalytic Converter

Post by bullyroberts » Thu Jan 05, 2012 8:09 pm

My v6 2.5 has just failed its mot on emissions and I have been told that I need to get a new Catalytic Converter,
I am searching online and I am finding it quite hard to find one I think the part no is 20-500A but when I go onto web sites and it asks for my car details it does not have the bongo as an option, does anybody know if any other makes are compatible or are there any websites that I might have a bit more joy with.
I hope somebody can help as I have only got 10 working days to find one and get it installed and I am not very clued up when it comes to car parts.
Thanks in advance :D

Hi,just checked EPC its coming up....

Mazda

Ordering Japan

You might be better looking for a universal type,or going to a exhaust centre for a match.

All the best.
