I've got a late '04 TF, so no engine bay sensor and I've had a similar issue, however with the engine bay fan running if I turn the ignition off the engine bay fan goes off - no run on as suggested here? Is this correct?

I assume I'd need stainless welding wire - not something I've tried yet with my MIG. Bearing in mind the existing CAT is 17 years and 113 miles old, how long can you expect an original CAT to last?

What am I missing here? Why will they pay 5x the cost for a new CAT for a 20 year old CAT - unless they have significantly less active material in them and a much shorter life, or is there something else?

So my exhaust unbelievably has lasted for over 2 years despite looking like this it doesn't leak and unfortunately it won't go on forever and the catalytic converter flange is very corroded does anyone have a solution for rectifying this - is it possible to weld a new flange onto the catalytic converter pipe or is there another solution?
