Default SES code P0430

Catalyst below threshold


Im 99.99% sure one of my cats is "going out". However, can someone explain to me how this happens. At cold startup, I occassionaly hear rattling underneath the car (catalyst). The exhaust also smells rich, as if i didnt even have cats on the car....

Guess its time for on ORY

mine usually sounded like marbles in the exhaust as it's breaking up and than within a day so it just got blown out the pipes.
