[ first part of message because i can''t post more ]

Hi,
i got a vw passat with an automatic transmission. Now i got the problem that my catalyst is defect.
I''''ve been to different garages but they couln''t repair it . A new one costs about more then 700 euros in the vw garage.
Is it possible to find antoher someone else?  And i hope more cheap offcourse.


These are the specifications of my vw passat

Engine capacity: 1896 ccm
Power: 96 kw
Motorcode: AVF
Key-number. zu 2 / 3: 3B3

Make sure if you have a turbo car that you get a metal catalyst cat, ceramic ones will not perform the same and will not pass emissions, ebay is a bad place to start...
