They stole my cat for 2015 Prius and was just told 2 months for parts. I live i Fremont CA area. Wait list is 2-4 months. I lost a 2005 cat but thought 2015 cats are not worth stealing. Are they stealing 2015 Prius cats now? I was told all Prius cats are same nationwide. Is that true? Anyone know if I could fly out of state to find a 2015 Prius Cat?
Probably not likely is the Toyota dealer network is Nationwide so I don't even know if a cat from another state would be allowed on your car if all Prius are California emissions ready I want to say I think so but I don't keep up with that stuff everybody on here is looking for a cat or many people come here just for this reason there is another company Walker magnaflow somebody's been approved for your state their back ordered too seems to me there would be some kind of way around the problem when is your next inspection for the piece of pipe in there temporarily you know there are many ways to skin a cat until the government has to get under your car again You could be pretty much good to go I don't know how often you guys have inspections. I wish you luck and your endeavor me personally wherever I am I'll just put a flange in a pipe until I can do otherwise or drive my motorcycle instead perfect.
It’s been happening since biden took the thrown bruh. Once economy goes bad precious metal prices sky rockets, and some of it is in the catty converter. A lot of Prius keeps wanting to race me at intersections Reving their motors when light turns green but I pull ahead consistently, but it’s just their cat been jacked Holmes.
You better get a "bolt-on" OEM cat; otherwise you may not pass Ca smog requirement. I believe there are only 2-3 certified aftermarket cats that meet current Ca smog standards. If there are fresh welds on your exhaust system; most shops will take a closer look at your cat and will probably run the stamp numbers on that cat to see if it is CA compliant. Hope this helps
Who’s they? A lot of conspiracists include “they” to make a point but won’t ever reveal the party(ies) in the subject!
Meaning I would travel to any location to pick it up, as I am assuming a dealer would not ship it to me directly. Hoping bay area is a hot spot for both Prius and cat thefts and that there is some dealer in some area with one in stock.
One of those things you have to include in the original post. A feller posted should he sell his trusted prius, they said yes and he did it. Then he had to public transit and was traumatized which he quickly purchased a regular gasser. Had thy only known it was his only vehicle
